Welcome to the forum!

That's a big question. Â*Lets see if we can whittle it down a little. Â*Do you know what the conditions are-what I mean is are there flooded trees, weedbeds, rocks, etc.? Â*And this time of year, any idea on the water temperature-moving from winter into spring that is a critical factor as to what to use.

this time of year 2 baits-a jig-n-pig and a suspending jerkbait are both good baits. Â*I realize that probably means absolutely nothing since you are just getting started, so here is a link that has a lot of good info that might help:

I saw the Wales and was wondering. Try the jerkbait or a rubber bodied jig around the cover-rocks, weeds, etc. Let us know how you do!
