Hire a guide for a day or two. Fishing a couple of times a year, you will never learn which end is up.
boat speed very important. where I live they want it slow. if you have a fish finder watch where the fish are, you might be fishing under the bigger ones. I normally use a 1/2 oz sinker and try to keep boat speed slow enough so line hangs straight down. usually around .4 mph. I also prefer to drift with the wind, not into it. The waves slapping the bottom of boat might scare fish.
Thanks I was running .6 -.8 I'll try shallower and slower in morning

I've had better luck around 0.6. I'm sure every lake is different at different times of the year.
I'm going to learn it live on the lake fish alot just never really spider rigged much

everyday is different. experiment with speed, depth, jig minnow, hook minnow etc. are your fish pre, spawn or post. maybe the big females have moved deeper, or up shallow spawning
What lake you live on ??

The bigger females were still hanging along the edge of the pads the other day. 3-4' deep In 8' of water.

Go down in front of Snowden's house and set half your poles at 6/8 and the other half at 10/12. If you don't get anything going in 30 minutes, disreguad
this transmission. Don't go in the middle of the day. Around daylight would be good.
Will do thanks deep water?

If you are pushing and like to push fast, push some 1/16 jigs up around .8 using 2 oz weights to hold them down. Fish 8 to 12 feet deep in 24-30 feet of water. If you start at daylight, run a couple of poles 6-8 feet deep. They are going down as the sun gets up. You will have to wade through some smaller fishQuote:
