Use your Electronics and look for schools of fish, they should look like Christmas Trees on your normal 2D sonar. Look for soft bottom areas in about 30' of water. Vertical Jig over the top of them with the Rippin Raps slowly. I like to tie my mono to the braid, there are many knots to choose from. Stay above the fish and Have Fun

Spring is a great time to cast Chatter Baits on the shorelines and shallow points. Look for shallow rocky shorelines that have a slow taper and put your trolling motor down and start casting the shoreline. Very your speed and direction. I like to tie about 5’ or XT to the fireline as a little shock absorber, check your knots and the last few feet of line often for nicks. Good luck!🎣
