are the red rattle traps a good bait this time of year,are they just for early spring?........I know it depends!

They work year round in some lakes. It can't hurt to have one tied on!!!

From November on thru the prespawn is the prime time.

I had always thought They were for Feb-Apr but I know alot a guys that throw them and catch fish all year. I still think they a little more effective in the spring.

throw a copper and blue/chrome.

Blue chrome works for me.

don't forget wintertime, when the water is 50 degrees and the fish won't hit much, they'll destroy a fast moving red rattletrap over submerged grass.

the reds brown and orange variations work well this time of year

On Fork, red lipless crankbaits can work October until spawn.

I busted my red boxes out today.

Getting ready for the fall bite. I have found somedays, Rayburn reds/milo work, some days firetiger, and some days, chromes.

I perfer them in early spring. However a few of the crawfish I have seen lately were very red.

I have the rayburn red color rattletrap and it is a KILLER in clear water here in California.

LECTRIC RED & CHROME RED, YEAR ROUND AT FORK. BUT THEY WORK BEST IN THE SPRING.
