So delicious! Caught more than I could count under 9 inches. 10 inches and up - maybe 15-20. It was a challenge trying to keep the little ones from biting so that the bigger ones could move in on your lure.

That is awesome! Is that minnows you are using?

Thanks.

Yep they’re emerald shiners. Tiny pinheads. It’s the insurance bait. Lol. A scoop for 5 or 6$ and you get to chat up the local bait and tackle shop.

Nothing like getting a few tips from the locals. Better than hiring a guide.

The local mom and pop tackle shops are always a good source of info too. Most complain paying a buck or two more for whatever, but it’s worth it if your the type of person who listens when they give advice. Especially when heading to a new body of water. I find you tell them your from out of town and they open up. Most ppl want you to have a good time and be successful.

Cheers.
