Piscis- I always look forward to your posts about Strawberry since you seem to have things figured out up there. I have never fished pointers however I did take out a second on the house and purchased one a few weeks ago but have yet to use it. I was just wondering about your technique. I am assuming that you cast right up next to shore and then what???? Do you start a fast steady retrieve or do you do some sort of jerk, pause, reel technique???? How deep will the pointer go (I'm a little worried about loosing my retirement nest egg to a tree limb all in one cast
])? Do you look for gradual sloping shallow areas or fairly steep ones to fish? And last question is do you have favorite pointer pattern or color that has been most effective at Strawberry. I think I purchased the ghost minnow color after I sold my first born child for 15 dollars so I could afford one. [

Thanks for the information! Can't wait to get up there. I learned a lot last year about vertical jigging and hope to get a lot more experience with that this year as well as broaden my techniques of how to tie my second mortgage to the line and throw it in toward shore and catch some nice ones!
