I love this time of year and running into that exact same scenario, as a finesse light tackle plastic nut, it fits right into my strength. This time of year I always have my Ledge Runner 4" split tail rigged on a 3/8oz Kalin Ultimate jig head, small weight and small profile is required. Sometimes you can get hits on or near the surface by working it with quick jerk-jerk-pause type retrieve and other times letting it sink below the school slurping will get you bigger fish.

I got nothing. I suck today. I'm exhausted from 2 stressful and long weeks at work, fishing late nights and being woken up way too early.
Any interest in joining me in the morning?

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I think you hit the nail on the head, Ross. The smaller stuff wouldn't get out to where they were and the stuff that I could reach them with was too big, I think. Of course I don't even own a casting egg.

When you find small bait packed in at night, you can sometimes do a job on large fish by fishing a big darter very slowly with lots of pauses and small twitches just beneath the surface...... make it look like a squid hunting the small bait. The biggest fish out there are not hunting the small stuff, they are hunting the stuff the small bait attracts.
