i am no expert since i've only caught my first burb this fall.

But I have found them in the rivers in 10' holes, and in 16' in the lakes jigging smelt right off bottom. I've caught most of mine during the middle of the day, though I feel like I've been extremely lucky since most people wait till dusk.

the burbs i did catch this fall in lakes during the day were covered in mud - something i read burbs do during the day - burrow into the bottom. either i was jigging my smelt right over them and/or i enticed them out of their slumber/ambush spot?
