The same thing happens with plastics. Hardbaits like irons megabaits shallow and deep running crank baits and top water baits are the ticket. Last two trips to Gonzaga I didn't even bother with my bait tank.

Eod,

Read the quote above. It was posted by Rossman on page one of this post. You may have missed. It has the information you asked about and explains the bait situation pretty well. Rossman fishes this area often so he knows his s--t.
