Try small jigs such as fiskas #35, #24 balance jigs, fiskas wolfram jigs, and mitzi ditzis in all sorts of sizes to see what size works best for the day. I get the best results with any of the jigs that have, green, orange, or yellow on them.

For easier reference, this link has a product description of the balance jigs.

I get my Fiskas jigs at the West Edmonton Mall Fishin Hole. I'm pretty sure that all of the other Fishin Hole shops supply them as well.

Here's a link to the Fishin Hole Shop's webiste.

Thanks for the tip and links. Looks like I have most of those. What bait suggestions do you reccomend? I would assume power bait, worms, meal worms?:thinking-006:

All those suggestions are good ones but even try a 1/16 oz silver panther martin tipped with a worm ive had good luck on this with big fish,just give a nice steady light jig with pauses at the bottom,when all else has failed ive done well with this,good luck

I use a weight 12-16in above a barbless hook with a piece of shrimp. Get the shrimp from the cheap shrimp rings at superstore. Make sure to pick up some cocktail sauce for yourself. Enjoy!!
