we like a pickeral rig with a sinker and a worm and garlic marshmellow for bait. ive got them on pink powerbait to. Once some1 campin beside us kept getting their bait stolen by a fish and later on i got a rainbow with powerbait still in its mouth after stealing the other guys bait. fish must hav been hungry. it had 2 doe balls in its mouth and still went after my line lol
