I like to focus my time on the steepest drop offs along the sides of the main river channel. Anywhere there is a bend tends to be a great places to start. Bright colored jigs with a leech tend to work best for me. I let the jig fall all the way to the floor then reel up so my bait is hovering anywhere from 6 to 10 inches off the bottom.

Slow rolling the smaller swimmer along current seams was key for nice pike. Weighting the swimmer with 1/4 oz of more was also important to keep the bait down in the water column. Less current the better or even retrieve the bait with the current rather than against it. Take a kid fishing!
