I rarely use anything bigger than 4. As the current rips I'll cast closer to the bank and farther upcurrent. So many guys feel the farthest casts will get the biggest and most fish. At certain spots yes but many spots you will be casting over many more fish. Like Mike says these fish don't want to expend alot of energy fighting the current, they will find the slower spots to relax and feed. Many times while chunking I have caught large less than 10 feet out. Some spots I'll use 2 ozs. at the height of the flow, next to me guys will be throwing 5+ and beating the snot out of themselves.
