Tip for early spring - use small rubber to prospect an area for signs of life. If you don't get any action move on to the next place.

Match the hatch with your presentation
There are places where it's only spearing and minnows. You throw a 5 or 6 inch shad you will catch. You will double your catching by just keeping it simple and using the basic fin-S. Too many fellas want to complicate things. KISS.

Yes, and low and slow is the way to go.
