Megabass s-crankz.They're not less than 9 dollars but they flat out catch fish when nothing else will. Throw them with 30 lb braid and a piece of 7 foot 20 lb trilene xt leader connected via fg knot cause pikes seem to love them too. I've had one down the throat of a pike before and it didn't cut the mono I have had good luck with phantom and brown metallic colors.

Be very careful anchoring in a river. I've flipped once doing it and had another close call this summer. What happens is, when the anchor gets stuck and you go to retrieve it by positioning the yak perpendicular to where the line is going into the water, the current will wash over the top of the yak and flip you. I no longer anchor in strong currents or rivers. I had to detach and throw the anchor line in the water on the second close call. Retrieved it after I got my senses back.
