Tip&Trick Description 1: Muddy Water Baits
By Steve VonBrandt
Nothing ruins the occasional fishing trip more than driving a long distance to your favorite spot, only to find out it’s been raining for the last few weeks and the water is the color of Chocolate milk! Many years ago, I was like most weekend anglers, and would immediately try to find another lake or river that might be a little more clear, or just turn around and go home. But I found over the last 20 years, that it isn’t necessary to give up so quickly on muddy water.

There are many times when a creek arm, or a certain portion of the lake or river isn’t as muddy, or there is a transition zone where it goes from muddy to stained, which can be a good area, but, even if there is no clearer water, there are many things you can do. Most gamefish react the same way to muddy water, they go shallow and they move closer to structure. This could mean a lot of different types of structure, such as brushpiles, laydowns, rocks, stump fields, pads on shallow flats, anything! When the bas are holding tight to cover, because of low visibility, the lure presentations sometimes need to be precise, such as when flipping a log or tree roots with a jig. Bellow are the 6 basic choices you should have rigged for fishing muddy waters.

Plastic Worms: I know this sounds like a strange choice, but a lot of times when bass are holding real tight to cover, a larger, bulkier worm, with some rattle inserted, possibly with a paddle tail, worked real close in the cover, can work well. I used a black or a black/red combination in muddy water. I also use the new Big 7 inch Senko that is out now, and drop it right into heavier cover. I have been using the new Cut-Tail worm for this also.

Vibrating Rattlers: These baits such as the Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, Cotton Bordell, Diamond Shad, or the Rattlin’ Rapalas, are excellent choices for probing different depths of muddy water, and where muddy changes to stained. The noise and vibrations of these baits, along with a realistic shad shape, make these great baits and stained to muddy water.

Crankbaits: I use a lot of the real fat bodied crankbaits in muddy water. I choose different baits with a wide wobble, and sometimes rattles. I usually stay with darker colors with red in muddy water. These colors with a wide wobble, are easier for bass to find.

Spinnerbaits: The bass will be using their lateral line more in the muddy water, so a spinnerbait with a heavy pulse such as a Terminator night bait, with a black skirt, and Colorado blade, is a perfect choice. You could even add rattles to this bait, which I have had success with in the muddy rivers and lakes in the Northeast. I always use a single Colorado blade on the spinner baits in muddy water, but in stained, or warmer stained water, I do go to an Oklahoma Blade sometimes with good results.

Topwaters: These are my favorite baits to use in muddy water. There are so many baits that shallow, muddy water bass will hit! The buzzbait worked slowly around cover will draw tremendous strikes. The walking type baits, such as a Zara Spook, and Fenwick walking baits, Jitterbugs, Crazy Crawlers, and a variety of other topwaters, including poppers with rattles, are excellent and exciting choices for muddy water bass. The bass will all be in water that is 1-4 feet deep, eliminating a lot of the water, making them easier to catch!

Jigs: Jigs in Brown/Black or Blue/Black with a Zoom or uncle Josh trailer, with some rattles, are an excellent choice to flip into laydowns, and shallow stump fields, and of course on docks. Make repeated casts to give them a good look and provoke them.

If you stick with these baits and methods the next time you run into muddy water, you will never be afraid to see it again. It will become a friend, as it has become to me.

Gordo Banks Pangas

San Jose del Cabo


May 13, 2007

Anglers –



Tourists visiting the Los Cabos area are experiencing paradise like weather conditions, clear sunny skies with high temperatures in the upper 80s. Crowds of people traveling to this Southern Baja resort have been lighter than normal for the month of May. For the past month local water temperatures have been fluctuating greatly, this past week the water is on a warming trend, particularly in the direction of the Sea of Cortez, through the region the water temperature is now ranging from the upper 60s on the lower Pacific to around 75 degrees in the vicinity of the Gordo Banks and up to 78 degrees off of the Los Frailes area.



Offshore action continued to be dominated by striped marlin, very few reports of dorado or yellowfin tuna. Mid week anglers encountered excellent action for striped marlin around the Gordo Banks, striped marlin could be seen feeding on the surface on balled up schools of mackerel. They were found in close proximity to shore, from 3 to 8 miles from shore, striking best on live bait, methods included slow trolling on the surface, casting to tailing or feeding fish, drift fishing bait down deep and others were striking on lures, average marlin caught weighed 100 to 150 pounds and many charters targeting billfish accounted for multiple catches per day. By the weekend this action had dispersed, as the baitfish moved and the fleet was once again scattered in search of the best action.



For the panga fleets the most consistent action continued to be in shallow water of 50 feet or less for a mix of snapper (pargo) species, sierra, jack crevalle, cabrilla and others. Most of these fish weighed less than ten pounds, but there were some exceptions, including one dogtooth snapper that weighed 45 pounds and cabrilla up to 15 pounds. This action was exclusively on bait, mainly sardinas, which were plentiful off of the La Playita area, there are now more schools of mullet moving into inshore waters, which have attracted more roosterfish and jack crevalle along the shoreline.



The Puerto Los Cabos marina project is now in the final stages, everyone is anxious to finally have this project finished. This past week the project has been stalled out due to protests by Green Peace, which has been camped out in the midst of the construction zone, blocking access roads for the heavy equipment. Hard to say what this group is trying to accomplish, it appears that it is much to late to try and halt the project, perhaps they are just trying to increase public awareness and gain media exposure.



The La Playita panga fleet sent out approximately 49 charters for the week and anglers produced a fish count of: 13 striped marlin, 5 dorado, 184 sierra, 13 pompano, 7 amberjack, 3 dogtooth snapper, 244 yellow snapper, 22 huachinango, 4 sheephead, 122 triggerfish, 16 cabrilla, 8 roosterfish and 42 surgeon fish.



Good Fishing, Eric
