Senkos are a good plastic. Go with the natural colors in clear water and darker in off color or murky water. Also, you'll want to use a darker color before the sun really comes out. Lighter colors when skies are high. Lizards are always a good choice this time of year. Presentation of the lizard varies. Sometimes they want it right on the bottom. Then sometimes use no weight(floating). Depends on their mood. I've thrown a splitshotted lizard and got no bites. Then switched to a floated lizard and killed them. Damn strike zones!
You'll probably want to pick up some oxblood worms too. This year seems to be the year of the oxblood worm. I'm always seeing reports of people catching them on the oxblood stuff. Then I finally started using them and BAM. They seem to be a universal bait.
Then again, nothings for sure in this fishing game. Sometimes you have to just experiment. Always remember what worked and when it worked. Damn patterns!
Why can't they just bite when the conditions are good?
