hogsucker Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I would try to avoid fishing for the swarms of redhorse you can see up on the fast gravel bars, because these fish generally don't take a bait very often. Look for deeper, slower holding water adjacent to these spawning areas, and fish with a half nightcrawler stationary on the bottom, with your rod(which should be of lighter action)in some kind of rod holder like a forked stick. This allows you to detect thier sometimes maddeningly light bites. Good luck! ~hogsucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
