Wow, that is a nice fish. I have no problem catching LMB but no peas to date. What's the best time of day or lures in your experience? Thanks!

We usually catch them early afternoon...when it is nice and sunny out. Almost all have been caught using Berkeley 1 1/2 inch swimbaits (firetiger color)....but live shiners work well, too!Slammer wrote:Wow, that is a nice fish.

Erradic jerk baits work well, like Rapala X-rap, HuskyJerk, or Yuzuri Pins Minnow.
Pins minnow is great but the hooks will be broken or straightened much quicker than the Rapala.
