Fished last year and used the gulp alive love them used the minnow and curl tail. I did find some day they like 2.5" and some day the 4" . So keeping a good selection and the 2 colors that seemed to work best was char. and black shad. In the curl tail char. As far as jig heads i used the one that i could feel the bottom. I boat fish most of the time. Just a foot note fish under 15" don't reproduce!!!!!!!
