[QUOTE="dschaible, post: 226338, member: 4870"] #9's and color for the most part doesn't seem to matter, reaction bite. There are a lot of different ways to work them snap 1-2 ft unassisted drop, snap 1-2ft assisted drop to bottom. snap 2-4 ft unassisted/assisted drop. quip snap, easy snap. Double snap snap/ walking the dog. Trolling at .5 and snapping. Always make bottom contact when casting/trolling thats when the fish smother the bait. Half the time the fish throws the hook on the way up and the other half of the time they throw it in the net, constant pressure and a quick net is key. Make sure to have a stiff leader i used 25lb paddlefishing mono (probably overkill but its what i have), swivel, to fireline or your hooks will get all twisted up in your fireline when snapping more aggressively. Mono apparently has a better catch % cause there is more give but i refuse to have mono on a reel. [/QUOTE]
