I am going to LOTW for he first time ever this January. Are there any must have lures? I am renting a house, but I am bringing all my tackle.

Gold……..
Whatever it is, make sure it is gold………
If you don’t use gold, use SHINNY GOLD……..
IF that don’t work, use DULL GOLD……….
If all else fails……..go GOLD
Have some orange too………but I prefer GOLD
December 8, 2005 at 9:29 pm #402399Either red lures or lures that glow red have always been good for me! Otherwise any type of rattle or noise lures!!
good luck let us know how you do!!!December 8, 2005 at 9:33 pm #402403Yep, the water is really tea stained.
Buckshot rattle jigs work well…..In GOLD color…..
Get some glows too, like Cal said.
LOTW was home to the classic “76” spinner blade……….That is the classic orange blade……..
That should help you out.
Where are you going out of?
December 8, 2005 at 10:09 pm #402424Gold, Glow and Yellow Glow Devils from Scenic Tackle. For slip bobbers a # 4 or #6 Demon Glow with small shiners.

All good colors and baits but, don’t forget silver and your chartreuse’s.
Give a #4 Chubby Darter in the GMO (gold metalic orange) a try. This a great swim bait!
Good luck and have lots of fun. It’s generally turkey shoot up there!
December 9, 2005 at 4:28 pm #402595It sounds like I need to do some shopping. I have a couple gold Angle Eyes that should work. I am going out of Zippel Bay on January 8-11th. I have to order now so I can get a deal on all this stuff.
December 10, 2005 at 1:26 am #402748Are you going out of zipple bay resort? If so, I can PM you some info..
December 13, 2005 at 4:09 am #403352Yes sir, I will be going out of Zippel. I have a cabin for three nights and a house for two days. I am bringing the portable to fish the last day. Any info is greatly appreciated.
December 16, 2005 at 4:17 pm #404598Hi derek, this is my first post. Im going out of zipple bay dec 28-30 in a sleeper. Any info would be greatly appreciated
December 19, 2005 at 8:58 pm #405228Red Glow Glo Devil is hard to beat on LOTW. That is my personal preference. I fish the lake a little bit After Red Glow, I will take the all Glo Glow Devil. When they are not taking jigging spoons, get out the dead sticks
January 3, 2006 at 10:50 pm #408845I have been stocking up on all the things you guys mentioned. I will be heading to Zippel Bay on Sunday.
