Pumpkinseed Chartreuse

From the Wisconsin border to the Illinois River, some of the best and easily accessible fishing in the Chicago area.

Pumpkinseed Chartreuse

Post by Ken G »

Over the years I've made a lot of posts on a few fishing websites.

In those posts were a lot of photos. A couple of years ago, when I had no choice but to shut down my original website, all the links to those photo's broke and the images disappeared . . . forever.

It's far too much work to try to redo them all.

This morning I was going through my photos, killing time before heading to work. Pictures were bringing back memories.

I use primarily twister tails and I use primarily pumpkinseed/chartreuse for color. They've always produced the best and I knew it was because the color mimics crayfish, but I had never really seen this personally.

Then one day in March 2002 I came across the crayfish pictured below and it drove the point home.

I looked in vain for another photo. The other color I primarily use is pearl/gray. Somewhere in my vast collection is a picture of me holding up a seine net loaded with bait fish. All about 3 inches long. All pearl/gray in color. If I find it, I'll put it up.
