Y'all got any tips for catching stubborn fish on the lights? It's hard to beat fishing the lights on Lake Hartwell during the prespawn. I like to throw a 3/16 strike king jig head with a 3.25 rage swimmer. It's deadly in FEB/MAR. A jigging spoon can also be pretty deadly.
But, when it gets warm.....they don't bite it. I go from catching 30 fish to about 3 or 4 fish....switch out the rage swimmer to a large worm.
But I'm talking right now. I see fish swimming just under the surface, circling the light.....I was fishing last week. I caught one on my swim bait, but most of the fish ignore it completely. My dad last week hooked a couple on a crappie jig. They are just super finicky....any tricks in making them bite?
I've tried a fluke, crankbait, worm, jig....they are just super stubborn.
