CP, your vertical casting sounds like dabbling a jig almost, just deeper and with a consistant retireve. Theres a small lake ive fished before that has a fishing pier that sits in 10-12 ft of water and its very close to some cribs and a dropoff. Sounds like a great place to try vertical casting.
Hey slabber,
I too am trying to learn that stretch of the fox and from what I understand but have not confirmed is that they get much bigger below the Montgomery dam. Still looking for my first slab on the islands in Batavia
