All the advice above is good. We had an excellent day last tuesday vertical jigging and caught 40+ fish. My friend fished yesterday and the wind was blowing so vertical jigging was difficult so they trolled using flyrod with sinking line and black wooly buggers and caught 20+ fish is 3 hours. If you don't have a fly rod you could also just long line a black bugger with a small split shot 5 feet up the line. You can troll anywhere from 1.0-2.5 MPH and get them. They will become more agressive near the surface as the water continues to cool and the water turns over. We caught a lot of fish last fall trolling buggers and very fun to catch them on the fly rod. They really hammer it. Trolling white tube jigs at about 2.0 MPH works good this time of year also. Have fun and we'll watch for your report.
