I got thinking the other night when i was out on my kayak. I was throwing poppers and the bite was ok, but slow. I took my second rod and rigged up a fly lined Gulp swimming minnow. no weight, just a 1/0 octopus hook and the swimbait (white, 3 in). I let that sit in my rod holder just a few feet off the bottom while i drifted along, and caught some quality fish. I think that the bait just twitches ever so slightly and does a good job mimicking a dying shad. Its nice that you can use the same bait for 10 or more fish also. Better than putting on a new piece of 'chovy every 10 minutes. Get the gulp bait. It really works well. let me know if it works for ya.
