Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Vibrax's, wiggle warts, and eggs have always been my # 1 choice for silvers. Size 3 and 4 on the vibrax, standard size wiggle wart, and a nickle size bait of eggs. The colors vary from river to river. Anyone can e-mail me at Capt.Longrod@yahoo.com and I can tell you what colors will work best for what river.
