March Zone 3

Zone 3 – March

Strike King pro Mark Davis has a few key spots that he recommends in Zone 3 during March.

Davis says he expects for the water temperature to be in the 50- to 60-degree range. “The best spots to fish are secondary points, channel swings, shallow ditches, and drains,” Davis shares.

BAIT 1: Strike King Thunder Cricket Vibrating Jig with Menace Grub trailer

 

If the water is clear, Davis prefers the Thunder Cricekt in White with a Menace Grub trailer. In stained water, he switches to the Chartreuse White. For muddy water, Davis will favor a Black Blue.

Changing the game for vibrating jigs, Thunder Cricket has a Jungle-style flipping hook and ultra-stiff, stainless-steel blade for unmistakable movement in the water.

His choice for clear water is the White Silver, while he opts for Chartreuse White if the water is stained. In muddy conditions, Davis opts for the Spot Remover.

KVD worked diligently to perfect the all-around perfect spinnerbait. Chief among the KVD Finesse Spinnerbait features is a smaller, redesigned Perfect Skirt® with natural colors for a realistic look and smaller profile in the water.

BAIT 3: Strike King KVD Perfect Plastics Game Hawg

 

He opts for the Moon Juice in clear water, and switches to a Blue Craw if the water is stained. Davis chooses the Black Blue Flake when fishing in muddy conditions.

The Strike King KVD Perfect Plastics Game Hawg has the ability to slither cleanly through vegetation with no loss of action because of its lithe, supple body.

BAIT 4: Strike King ¼ oz Denny Brauer Baby Structure Jig with Baby Rodent trailer

 

If the water is clear, he will throw a Green Pumpkin, while more stained water calls for a Blue Craw. Black Blue is a go-to for Davis if fishing in muddy water. Davis like to add the Baby Rodent to his Structure Jigs. 

The Denny Brauer Baby Structure Jig is aimed at reducing hang ups and increasing hookups. The shape and weedguard angle reduces hang-ups while the wide footprint of the head helps increase your feel of the bottom.

BAIT 5: Strike King KVD Perfect Plastic Finesse Worm

 

He opts for Moon Juice in clear water.  If the water is stained, he will throw the Candy Craw, while he will switch to a Blue Fleck if the water is muddy.

A specialized beveled tail design creates a unique action, making the KVD Finesse Worm an excellent choice for shaky head, drop shot, and wacky rigging.
