I'm concerned that the fish will want to eat that big of a meal when the water's so cold...the water will be in the mid 30s. I will certainly try this. How should I bait my minnow trap?
What forage fish are in the pond the LMB are used to eating?
It's a BG/LMB only pond.
Any tips from further north? I think conditions will be similar to ice-fishing as far as water temperature is concerned.
