    Hire a guide for a day or two. Fishing a couple of times a year, you will never learn which end is up.
    Tell'em I'll be there.

    boat speed very important. where I live they want it slow. if you have a fish finder watch where the fish are, you might be fishing under the bigger ones. I normally use a 1/2 oz sinker and try to keep boat speed slow enough so line hangs straight down. usually around .4 mph. I also prefer to drift with the wind, not into it. The waves slapping the bottom of boat might scare fish.

    I've had better luck around 0.6. I'm sure every lake is different at different times of the year.

    everyday is different. experiment with speed, depth, jig minnow, hook minnow etc. are your fish pre, spawn or post. maybe the big females have moved deeper, or up shallow spawning
