Rock Pile
Fishing the Oswego River dragging a jig slowly through rocks. Let it sit a little while when you feel it get hung up. When you pop it free, pause and wait for the bite. That’s when most bites were happening: the pause after freeing the jig from the rocks.

This is an amazing bait when water is a bit stained or with cloud cover. Early in the season go with a slower cadence and 3-5 second pauses. Hold on tight to your rod since they tend to hit it hard on the pause!
