Yeah, Shorty and I have probably 300 of these things between us in our ponds, and we can't get one to even sniff a lure.
Bruce, have you ever tried a tiny plug called an Ugly Duckling? They make a sinker, right at 2cm length, that is an absolute slayer for RES in deep pond water-can sink to where the RES hang out, and be retrieved slowly. They're made in Canada, and I haven't seen one in a store for ages, though Wally World had a few about 10 years ago.


I feel a little bit like Kwai Chang giving unsolicited advice to Master Po even chiming in on this topic......forgiveness to your presumptious student, O Great One!
