I never ceased to be amazed at how many different lures/flies/baits are the "go to" lures/flies/baits for the different fishermen/women at Strawberry -- and they all seem to work. One thing that I have noticed about Strawberry is that if something isn't working, try a different lure, or at least a different color. I have also noticed that often one lure or one color will work for awhile during the day, and then they stop hitting it but will hit a different one. Some of my favorites for Strawberry are, fresh minnows, rainbow Rapalas, Carter Spoons, various in-line spinners, a nightcrawler behind a flasher or all by itself -- and whatever else happens to catch my eye in my tackle box that day. Try them all (and don't be afraid to go extremely small -- such as a swedish pimple) trolled especially during the heat of the summer.
