Fished Friday night into Saturday morning. Fish were acting as you described. Picked up over a dozen on 7" olive mambo minnow. Picked up a few on 7" shad and a couple on a jig but they seem to want something just running under the surface that night, even in the heavy current. Nothing large, all were between 22 and 30".

9 times out of 10 if I experience those conditions I can get some strikes if I put on a 6" skinny Hogy. From my experience when they won't touch the plugs they are usually on smaller bait and the 6" Hogy with a weighted hook will still cast far enough on light tackle to get out to the fish. That 1 out of 10 time is always the time that makes you wonder if you want to keep fishing or not though, isn't it?

Good Luck
