Used a crawdad jig, same as I used to catch the Smallmouth that I caught at Alder a few weeks ago just to see if the kokes would bite it and man let me tell you they ate it up, trolled it only 20 to 30 feet back with smelly craw stuff on it and I could not keep my line in for a minute before I would have another bite and on my pontoon boat with the wind and current made it tough to bring them in, had two double hook ups one of the two I ended up throwing one fish in the cooler and then picking up the other rod, lost the net because I just let it go to grab the other rod and did not think about where the net would end up, so here comes the other fish to my feet and I look back for the net, nowhere to be found so reached around back opened the cooler and did a slam dunk in the cooler and unhooked him later. Second double hook up tied one fish up into my stringer and suprisingly enough brought him in, thought for sure I was going to lose him and wound up losing the one not wrapped up at my feet. Lost at least ten at my feet, kinda hard to keep the pontoon from bobbing around when the current and wind against each other make lots of chop then had to keep out of other fishermans way all at the same time. All in all great day and cannot wait to go back. The pics are same fish just different shots. Fillet knife is 10 and 3/4 inches long so you guess the length.
