That was what was so confusing to me. I think I have been around more cover spider rigging then I ever was drifting--I guess they are the more elusive of the species.Quote:

On a lake i fish the proportion from black to white is much closer in percentages than the rest of the lakes I fish. On that lake it's not unusual to have 1/3rd whites and the rest blacks in the 'well most days. And there are still days where a white is hard to come by (more blacks than whites, even on this lake). I longline troll flats and over creek channels until the fish go shallow. Then I'm longlining shallows. You can catch big whites still in the shallows 2-4 weeks after most of the blacks have went back onto the deeper flats. So.......there's nothing that I do to catch whites vrs blacks. They entermingle and get caught in the same locations of the lake when they get caught.
we did have alot of water in 2010 and I was catching them 25 to 30ft deep (just off the bottom)--course alot less water last year and the deepest I fished all year was 15ft.Quote:
