Love the stuff. I usually carry four to five colors.
Found a great trick if you are fishing deep water with lots of surface strikes.
I cut a small piece of split shot and either connect it right to the hook or to the line at the knot. I will use a piece large enough to sink a piece of power bait a little smaller than a marble but larger than a pea. I then connect a slip float and set the slip to allow four to six feet between the bait and the float.
I have used this method at Dixon, Wolford, Eldorado(only two feet), in Arizona Saguaro, Canyon, Bartlet, Pleasant, Willow Springs, Long Lake, Lake Mary, Blue Ridge Res, Chevelon Canyon/Creek and many more.
This method also worked without the float free line in streams and rivers casting out and letting the bait drift and bounce on the bottom.
Have you tried the power trout worms?
They Are awesome.
