i often use a crawdad around a rocky ledge and have had pretty good luck with that.

I may be wrong, and correct me if i am, but I thought that the daylight time was what triggered spawning and , the first to move in to the spawning beds are perch, lasting about 2 weeks, then the pike, and finally the bass. (I'm speaking from a Vermont fisherman's experience) But i believe the bass spawning period can last about a week and a half, from when they get settled on a spawning bed, then lay their eggs and protect them. Anyone have any ideas on what's best to trigger the bite from a spawning bed? Live minnows, worms, jigs, spinnerbaits? Thanks
