I assume you are talking Newman Creek? I have no problem using minnows or jig tipped minnows, if that is what it takes! I fish jigs 99% of the time. We need to meet up someday soon.
I was fishing Little Glasses. I usually fish with jigs, but will use minnows when needed. Yes, we do need to meet up soon. With the warmer weather, I hope to be at the lake more and will plan on giving you a call.
