How deep do you fish?

[catalysthackle]

How deep do you all fish your soft plastics? I've been fishing them pretty much 10' or less and when I mark fish at 12+ I try to crank to them or something else with a lot of noise/vibration. I have it stuck in my head that they won't be able to see a worm that deep and that it don't make much noise or vibration. I did get a bite on a black senko last night at almost dark I'm sure the fish didn't see it..... What have your experiences been? Thanks.

Most say black is most visible at night because the black contrast off the sky. I've fished plastics in 30' feet of water before for panfish and done well. - Bryon

i caught a largemouth on table rock lake in 45 FOW on a carolina rigged hula grub.

we have pretty clear water in michigan, they'll see it.

In clear water fish can see well below 50 feet. I'd fish soft plastics anywhere between 1'-20' depending on the conditions. The only time I would go deeper is dragging the SCR for bass. But that's just me. Lots of guys fish deeper.

I caught several nice sized largemouth today fishing a soft plastic worm in 22-26 feet of water. Drop shot, shakeyhead, texas rig, carolina rig. These are just some of the ways to get your soft plastics down to deep fish.

I caught 2 bass on Nepessing at 30ft Drop Shotting a 6" Houdini Worm.

In the summer I catch quite a few bass in water as deep as 35' with soft plastics. The fish can see more than you would think. The lake my property is on is so clear that you have to go that deep just to have success on the bigger fish.

Remember its not how deep you fish, it how you wiggle your worm that counts.

:coolgleam Walleye fisherman will use soft plastics on a jig in water as deep as 40ft., or so. The baits will change colors in the eyes of a fish as shallow as 5-10 ft. below the surface(due to light diffusion and refraction)but the fish still see it. You'd be suprised how well fish see the bait at depth. :fish:
