Might tip my grub with a plastic minner, but no live bait
run doubles a lot, size varies depending on the depth of fish, sometimes that's what it takes to get bit.
.6mph on up, it varies day to day.
I have a MK Terrova w/ IP,
usually 1/16 or 1/8, but if deep, may go to 1/4, and nothing wrong with mixing the weights up, don't be afraid to try something that sounds crazy, if it gets a bite, then keep with it.
Sometimes the heavy on top, sometimes on bottom, again, adjusting the spread between jigs can be a factor as well.
Can start with a wide spectrum of colors and start narrowing it down, just like you do with pulling cranks, some colors work today but don't work tomorrow.
GO BIG ORANGE !
I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.
