High Dirty Water

Big peacocks can be caught during high dirty water. I have caught many, some in the 6 ibs. range. You just need to figure out the pattern. Yes, you can also pattern peacocks. With the right lures and approach, you too can score big. So I hope for high dirty water.

Pattern the peacocks? Should be easy enough. Post up pics of the Tucs that are over 6 lbs. Anything smaller is just boring. :roll:

Never seen anyone catch peacocks in heavy stained water on lures. Im sure if you found a school thats in a feeding mode in stained water maybe vibrating bait i could see it happening! i think the hardest part is working the water blind with no visibility of structure and actually finding the fish and getting them to bite. I usually get frustrated feel like im throwing in the blind and wasting my time. I like to know where the fish are and try different techniques to get them to start biting. I don't mind fishing for lm in stained water i usually throw a worm tight to cover worked slow. Anyone went fishing since the rains?

I seem to remember John catching some tukes using a loud, green, spinner bait once. Water was dirty. Yea, I think so.

It looks like we're all catching the LMB from the same generation as they all seem to be about the same size.

I sure am thankful for wahiawa middle for the released stock! If it weren't for them id be skunked all winter. cant wait till the summer bite heats up and the tucs start eating rubber and plastic again!
