Thank you for the great information. I took the past two days to fish the Croix around Stillwater. I tried both the lake and river sections with most of my success coming in a small current seam near deep water. Most of my fish were smallmouth with a couple of walleyes mixed in.
Each angling season I try to add a couple of presentations and lure types; after watching last years I.D.O. episodes I was eager to learn to better fish ripping raps and after watching the spring smallmouth trip to the Mississippi I really wanted to give the storm twitch sticks a try. Thanks Mike!
This summer I had nice success in Quetico with rippen raps. The past two weeks I have been using twitch sticks for largemouth on Chicago and getting some really nice fish. The past couple of days rippen raps have been my go too on the Croix with nice results.
Not only are these lures effective in the right time and place but man are they fun to fish! I really enjoyed fishing rippen raps along current edges.
One again I.D.O. has come through with timely information and new presentations.
