Experiment a lot. I've been five times in the last three weeks and each time something different has been hot... and at different times of the day.
Flies, rainbow rapallas, large spinner fish, Jakes, Needlefish, Wobblers, tube jigs -- sometimes on the surface and sometimes downrigged -- have all been VERY hot at times.
And then the next trip it's completely different.
Are you going to be on a boat or fishing from shore?

Both the shore and the boat we are going to be on the boat the most though. Thanks for your response. [cool]

I just got home from the ol' Berry. Boat and shore was night and day. I fished probably 3 hours from shore with 3 bites 0 fish. I fished on a boat for about 30 minutes with 8 fish. We were using power bait and worms and they were loving both. I found a place where a fly fisherman would have had the time of their life. It's going to be a good summer.
Find a cove and throw some bait out, if you have no bites in 20 minutes, move to the next cove.

3" White or Root Beer colored tube jigs on 1/8-1/4 oz. heads tipped with crawler or chub meat, also curly tail grubs in the same colors. Should produce a few fish[sly]

I was up there this weekend and people in boats were crushing with rainbow powerbait. We caught some with Chartreuse Garlic scent as well. They caught about 10 fish in 30 minutes going back and forth by Indian Creek. Every one was hooting and hollering but then by about 2 it got really windy so I'd go early as you can.

I have always had great success with garlic powerbait floating off the bottom as well as drifting sardines for the bigger cutts. But moving is the key... If the fishing slows down, move.

thanks for the responses, we should be going every morning as far as i know, we have always done good on garlic powerbait are there any other good types that have been working good?, by the way has anyone been on the soldier creek side?
if you still have any info on what to use at the strawberry and/or the soldier creek side and could reply it would be very appreciated
thanks again- zach .z (Hookin-em)
