if you can see those fish, they can see you. try a more stealthy approach. a 3" senko on 6 lb line will get them to bite.

maybe in a lake, but never in a pond. only possible chance for where i fish when they are visible is usually a trickworm or a minnow

A light jerkbait or the senko josh reccomended should work great, also try the zoom fluke in something like a smoking shad or batfish color. The wounded action should draw them in when twitchin it away from the school a little bit, it will be an easier target. Keep it light, 6 to 8 lb test, just set the drag right.

i forgot about flukes. try the white, smokin' shad and natural colors or very bright ones.

Stealth fishing for sure..

My choices ...

1. I'd fish a 6 inch rubber worm ..cast worm on bank and work it in...or 3 inch salty tube bait...with a micro split shot causig tube to swim downly very slow and life like.

2nd ...A floating Rapala ..gold and black. switch it.

3rd.. fish long ways and cast a 1/4 ounce white Rooster Tail way beyond target..with a high ratio reel you can fish that lure slowly about 18 ibches from the top

use light mono light
