When and where

[wvubassfan]

do you throw lipless cranks for Smallies?

What colors are you using.

I usually will throw a craw pattern or a chrome blue back or gold trap in the spring when I am up on Erie.

I can usually find them that way then slow down and really hit them.

I had a lot of luck trolling a Red XPS Rattle Shad at medium speeds in water between 8-20ft. I tried it on more than one ocassion and it seemed to work whenever the bass weren't keen on biting.

Thanks that was what I was wondering.
