Winni on derby weekend will be a zoo. If you fish it, it is crazy but admittedly fun. Some of the funniest people are out there. Dangerous too so be careful. ;) Bring a camera.
Lakers: 15-50 feet. Ledges, flats, points, dropoffs. Jigging with cut bait on a swedish pimple or similar baits. Tube baits work well too.
Rainbows: 1-6 feet. sandy shallow beech areas near current. Salmon eggs, smelt, small shiner, small jiggs tipped with maggots.
Salmon: everywhere and don't want to leave you alone even though you can pull them through the hole. :( I think they are teasing us.
Smelt are a good bait to use but also are hard to keep alive which makes them more expensive and in limited supply. Some years bait dealers laugh at you when you ask for them. I think AJs does have some though so give him a call. But I'm also hearing that bait orders have been chomped this year and places have been running out hear in So. NH.
