Are you targeting BG, or some of those "other" fish you mentioned?

I think minnows would work great on the Crappie and the Bass.

I'm still sticking with my recommendation for tiny jigs on the BG, though. I like horizontal tungsten jigs, and I have good luck with the color red.

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
