    Default Gills fight like the dickens!

    When I get a decent sunnie hooked, it's like catching a fish twice its size. I've been getting into them mixed with crappie mid lake in 5-6'/ same spot day after day. On sonar they looked schooled up so it's easy to locate fish and then anchor. The variety of lures the fish bit (including crappie) was amazing!
    Key though was the retrieve:
    Raise the rod tip 4" or so. drop it and reel in the slack/ repeat, pausing ever so often. The lure has got to glide at times, dart when twitch with the rod tip and wobble.

    That's all it took for fish to smack any of the lures shown.
