If I am after 'Gills or Shellcracker then the ticket is a 1/64 jig tipped with a wax worm or a #8 or #10 hook tipped with maggots or waxies. You can also use teardrop ice jigs tipped with waxies.
I second that, but I also tip with crickets or crappie nibbles. Also try a fly like a McGinty Bee tipped under a wieghted float.
