hey...i fish up in PA. Mainly river fishing and some dams. I usually fish structure (brush piles,rocks) and weed beds. Theres usually not much current though.I only use spinning rods. I need to learn on how to catch suspended fish in the channels. I also use rattlertraps but havent had much luck. The water is so warm right now they are not hitting well.My favorite is catching smallies right before dark on top water. If you watched the bassmaster classic you would have seen simliar areas like i fish.
