Welcome west! Jeff is right about the lakes he mentioned,but I'm still getting a limet in 2hrs or less of nice pan size bows,10-13",trolling a half&half Dick-Nite,(bronze&silver),no weight,just a small swivel 2/3ft above the spoon. Usually loose about 40% of the hits.they hit hard,but don't hook-up. Still fishing I would use worms,either close to top or just off the bottem. I release all but what I'm going to eat or smoke within a couple of days. Good bank fishing north of boat launch.The Dick-Nite has worked for me for 30+ yrs. Hope this helps! I've been taLking about OHOP LAKE but will work in surrounding lakes as well! I know you will have FUN!!!! CARL
