To coax these nighttime bass into eating, he likes to slowly fish it close to the bottom of the water column. “It causes all kinds of vibration underwater and the bass really seem to hone in on the massive water displacement caused by a big, single Colorado blade.” 6 Colorado blade is the only blade you need to throw when you’re night fishing,” Stone said. As the bass’ nighttime vision is significantly inhibited, a big Colorado blade allows them to sense the intense vibrations with their lateral lines. When fishing a blade in slower water I’ll add a little more tension and maybe include a slow retrieval to ensure the blade is spinning or getting some action.When he finds himself on the water after dark, Stone instinctively turns to a 1/2-ounce black spinnerbait with a gold No. To clarify, if I’m fishing faster water, I won’t impart any action to the float and allow the current to spin the blade. Anyway, this tactic on a river is a common setup for Salmon, Steelhead or Trout as the moving water imparts most of the action on the blade. In fact, this short floating approach with a blade was the setup I had when I caught my first ever Steelhead! I’ll never forget it. The blade should not be hitting the bottom but always drifting above (called “short floating”). I personally like to fish blades under a float in moving water or tide (usually a river). These blades can also act like an intruder in a fishes holding spot and I’ve seen them bite out of (what I believe was) strictly aggression. So this lure is likely to be more effective when there are more fry/smolts present in the water system. These Colorado blades have a flutter action to them and mimic a fry or smolt (minnow). Colorado Blades (“blades”) can be fished in a number of ways: drifted under a float, trolled, cast and retrieved, and likely many other ways that I’ve yet to try.
