Take a run up the French Creek channel, fish the channel after the bridge right before it becomes open water. Last month I walked down there from the actual moving water and casted a #2 Blue Fox, about my 4th cast I watched over 50 fish between 8-17 inches chase me up to the first drop off. 3 of my buddies were using Powerbait, color did not matter, they would run out of one color and just switch to another, we even mixed Brown with Chartruese, black buggers were getting them also, but they should have a tungsten bead WITH lead wrapping around the hook, White orange beaded buggers were getting chased but seemed too bright for the clear water.
If we didn't get a hit within 10 seconds of hitting bottom, we would reel about 6 feet and drop it again, I would jig my powerbait and reel slowly to shore and the fish would be stacked behind it, the jigging really entices them, even with a Blue Fox.
