    Rattler trap,chatter bait,buzz bait and spinner baits great to use in that water.

    File the knowledge you learned fishing dirty water away for future reference. Spinnerbaits, chatterbaits and squarebills are your friend in the wind. You did great!

      Thanks! Our Ohio Kayak Fishing 2025 trail opener is at Alum Creek in April, so I've got some map studying to do over the winter!

    Looks like you were using a northland reed runner spinnerbait, perfect conditions for it. They move pretty slow and look like a neon diner sign in that dark water. Try the Blackbird black and orange one. You would be surprised how good it works in stained and panic water. Good job on your videos!🐟

      Good eye, I really like those Reed Runners! It is funny because my local BassPro stocks them in the muskie aisle so you have to hunt for them!

    Great videos! Your intro made me laugh, I just got my first kayak and I'm driving a very unreliable van with 200k miles and no ac 😂 and I've been looking at the outback as a replacement, hope it's still serving you well.

    Great North Face Tent! I LOVE camping and fishing. I also like your foul weather gear. No matter what, it looks like you will be nice and dry! I like the blue color. I have the same net and it is the best on the planet. it is perfect for any type of fishing. Your fishing channel is so relaxing and you are so upbeat about everything. Very refreshing! Thank you for this fishing adventure. I can't wait for the next one.
    Fish on Lady! 🐟🐟🐟🐟👍👍🌹

      Oh how cool! Level 3, wow! I'm level 2 Alpine and level 1 Children's but I don't think I'll ever dive deep enough into the technical parts to get my level 3! I miss the Patagonia discount, I applied to be Patagonia pro-staff after PSIA switched to NF, but they rejected me because I wasn't "full time" at any outdoor pursuits.

      @@GirlGoneFishing I have always been a die-hard NF fan. I still have everything I have ever bought from them and it's all like new. Back in the '80's, I was sponsored by the "Real" North Face before the Hilfiger NF. They asked me if I wanted some camping gear and I said yes. They sent me an 8 person expedition tent the same as they used on Everest! Retail at the time was like $4800. I never used it because it was too big. I asked my backcountry friends in Whistler BC if they wanted it to set up in the backcountry and they did. It's been there since 1994!! I've stayed in it 15 times and it looks like new. They bring it back down every April because that's when Whistler closes for skiing to the public. I was a Patagonia rep but it's not the gear for 4 days out in the backcountry where it's life or death.
      Fish on Melissa!! 👍👍🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

    • @GirlGoneFishing
      @GirlGoneFishing  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I had a spinnerbait in the rotation through most of the day, but it was a chartreuse with hammered gold blades, and I started getting bit when I finally switched to the one with painted chartreuse blades. And now we'll never know if that switch would have worked earlier or if the bite just turned on at 2pm.

    I live within 15 minutes of Alum Creek and it can be tough fishing when the water is up and muddy like that. That was a great choice on the spinnerbait and the painted blades do make a difference! I was taught when the water is that muddy to use a colorado blade for more thump, just wanted to share to be helpful. Glad that you had fun and did good! Safe travels and hope you come back and fish Alum Creek again and you might want to try Hoover Reservoir which is about 20 minutes east of Alum Creek and it is a 10hp restricted lake which is perfect for kayak fishing! :)

    • @GirlGoneFishing
      @GirlGoneFishing  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    The upper end has always skunked me and is always dirty. I have a lot more luck in the south pool. Also, be careful. I know dawn was close but technically it's illegal for you to be out before without proper running lights and quite honestly can be dangerous
