What lures would i use in the Spring?

Try using a jig (size depends on the current ) and a minnow. Try finding a wash board effect bottom, and anchor upstream and let 10 ft of rope ( should have a 100 to 200 ft rope with a heavy enough anchor ) at a time. What you want to do is try to find the low spots, thats where the fish like to lay, or try to find a eddy ( slow moving water caused by a bend in the river, or a obsticale like a rock or a fallen tree). Pulling crankbaits also will work in cold water, but you might want to try on the smaller size ones, and dont forget that you can use a bottom bouncer if you have problems getting it down to the strike zone! Dont forget that a lot of big females are caught at that time of the year, so remember to bring a camera, a picture lasts a life time, eating it doesnt. Keep your rods bent !!!!! Flagmanonice<br><br>
