Welcome and remember to logon on each time so we know who you are. About 80% are caught on cut bait. This is because the river is so narrow and deep. But you can take them on lures or Buck tails it is just slower.

I don’t use circle hook and hardly ever gut hook them. You just have to know when to set the hook. But if you don’t fish in this area for them much I would say to use them. They will help from being gut hooked.

We had a great Rock run last year. With rock being caught at a rate of about 8 to 10 each hour. So if you were in this end of the state it would be a great trip to go on.
