In the winter I fish smaller baits, something around 4 1/2". In the summer I fish bigger baits, around 6- 6 1/2". If you can,try to find live Herring. That will give you a good idea as to the size to fish. In the summer time the bait will be bigger than in the winter.

If you catch a fish,take a look in its belly,that will also give you an idea to the size of the bait. Blackmouth are little pigs and should have some bait in their belly.
