Funny, my HSB won't hit anything but a pellet imitation - ever. If they are really aggressive I might be able to get some on a live lined nosehooked GSH or BG. Imagine a few weeks off the feed would change their snobbish proclivity.

Son Jeff catches HSB on small spinner baits and I sometimes I experiment successfully with 3 inch Clousers and Spinsters...aka Mrs G's #Gill
