The good news is that I have been catching tons of fish on the Whitefish Chain, unfortunately no matter what I use for bait, I can’t stop catching these pesky snakes. I even resorted to “walking the dog” with a 115 lbs. topwater, the biggest in my box. Any suggestions as to catching larger fish?

Any CPR suggestions? Water temp was only 70 degrees but the fish seemed tired from the battle.

Maybe you should try another color? Say maybe some type of tiger pattern?July 13, 2007 at 10:08 pm #511492i bought that lure at petco about a year and a hlf ago, it works great
July 16, 2007 at 12:33 pm #590572I got a pointer this year. They are more sneaky and the bigger fish do not see them coming. The liver and white color has been working well for me.
