Friday Perch at Hyrum

[Therapist]

Do you fish the crickets on the surface kicking, or sink them?  This time of year I have a few crickets trying to get into my house... I may have to try this... Thanks Jeff

I usually fish them under a bobber.  I use a long shank, gold, aberdeen hook, #2 or 4, a pencil bobber, and just enough split shot to sink the bobber so just the top 1 - 1.5 inches are showing.  Depth is determined by how deep the water is.  Most times on Utah Lake,  the depth is set at about 2.5 to 3 ft, so the cricket is 4-6 inches off the bottom.  Strikes vary from grab and go to a gentle glide away.
