I'm signed up again for the DAV event to take a vet fishing. I got a BIG problem. Last year my vet got mixed up & went on another boat so Wiperhunter2 & I went out. We smelled awful of skunk when we came back in. This year I took a family out for Cast 4 Kids and we hit every place on that pond that I hoped might produce. They caught one rainbow. Is anybody willing to give me some advice?
I sure as he-- don't want to disappoint a vet.
I gots my hat in my hand& I'm beggin'
Thanx

I quit helping cast for kids when they sued me. The release form isn't fit for butt wipe. Someone puts a eye out, they'll own your house. Vets may be different. Semper fi. My wife's been catching fish drpshoting night crawlers in 20 ft of water.

Troll the eastern cliffs with a broke Rapalas. Our favorite is a#7 broke back either black and silver or rainbow. Pop gear and worm always good in the same area.

Do you normally do well and are just having a bad spell or...
Do you need more basic instructions?

Curtis,
I got me a trolling motor now. That's the way we caught the only fish.

Hey Tom, the guys gave you some good advice on what to use but do you have any down riggers or lead core line to get down to the depth the fish are biting? If not, you have other choices, you can use banana weights or bullet weights. If you use a 3 to 4 ounce banana weight, you should be able to get pretty deep. For the money it will cost you, I'd say banana weights would be your best choice to get deep if you don't have downriggers or lead core line. In line spinners, like wedding rings will also work for lures, if you tip them with a piece of crawler. Good luck, hope to see you up there.
