Dear Larry The King,
I missed my opportunity to load up my bait tanks on suckers this spring so i am now concentrating on getting big golden shiners (for bass and esox bait) and some small carp for flatheads
My question is how big of a carp dare i use to entice a flathead? i will use limblines or jugs to present them. I can usually get them from 8" and up. I was thinking of slapping a 6 pound carp on a jug.
Also, i have circle and J hooks of every conceivable size to use and i usually hook carp thru the tail meat to prevent the hook from turning back into the bait.
Any thoughts or suggestions on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Steel Neal
