CK,Im not sure about the Sliders running/holding higher in the water column.I almost exclusively use "sliders" at that lake.I started using them because of a particular color they had that kalins and others didnt have,and prettymuch bought other slider colors. Its amazing that the color of the jigs tail can make the difference of getting bit or getting nothing..A lot of stuff I use has chartruse tail,,.Ive tried solid chartruse jigs with NO luck(I guess too much of a good thing!)I do NOT use the "slider"jig head,I use the minnow head. Id be glad to have you on board one day for a 101 lesson,Im no expert by no means but I be glad to show you what I know and what works for me at that lake.In my opinion the speed is very important.The slider may take a wee bit more speed to make the tail swim,as compaired to the curl tail jigs..We use to use the old "HAL-FLY" jigs back in the 80 up there.I havent used one in many many years now.Im sure some of you (long in the tooth) guys like me have used the ol hal fly..
Ray,,Roscoe would have the upper hand over RJ,,,he hasnt got but one trip under his belt..He is small enough,I could let Ronnie take him on his kayak and train him for me !
ScooperDude,Im too lazy to fill up the bait tank and clean it out,,I just used the livewell and soon as I get home put the knife to em.I have kept them in there in the past
