Crickets

[perch]

thanks guys  those tiger trout are a cross bred trout   a brown trout and brook trout cross.  they fight hard and grow big   Here are a few I have caught and released  ice fishing   These were caught in Utah and we have some here in Wyoming but not as many.   I travel a lot to fish for different fish

what kinds of small panfish jigs do you all like to use?  do any of you have the 1" nano fry I see it in the store.   if you do and would be interested in selling a few please let me know I like to check the baits out if they are what Im looking for I buy the molds  thanks

For panfish molds I have the 1.75" crappie carrot, the 1.75" croaker, and a 2.25" grub from another company.  Lots of the guys on here have the nano fry.  Post something in the bait trade forum, I'm sure you'll find someone who has some extras.  Great pics and welcome to the forum.  I'm not a big fan of hybrid fish stocking, but they're pretty and fun to catch anyway.

Hey thanks a lot for the info I will give that a try.  I have a BT tiny frog and love it but I have my eye on getting that 1.75" croaker soon to.    Those tiger trout are a sterile trout they don't reproduce and are being put in lakes for anglers to have more variety of fish to catch and more fish to catch and eat.    OR release what ever each angler wants to do with their catch.   

what kinds of panfish are you guys chasing and what kinds of plastics are you all making for panfish?

Great pics there - I just grabbed the cricket mold as I figured they'd be great for the browns as well up here in Canada and the pics sure show it - figure I would drift them under a flits like roe

thanks guys they are a small thin bait but they do catch some BIG fish   people look at me with those looks  im sure you all have seen before   

Its one of those What the Heck are you thinking you redneck using a plastic cricket until the drag starts screaming and its FISH ON      I use more small panfish baits for trout than most do and I catch a lot more fish than they do to.     Oh they do catch panfish and bass to

At least they're sterile.  They still compete with the native fish for forage and habitat.  It's always driven me nuts that natural resource agencies freak out about invasive species (snakeheads, carp, etc) yet support stocking fish that are not native and equally as damaging to the food chain.
