flies and bait.




J/k depends on if you plan on fishing the tailrace for buffs or the main lake? The tailrace you can get them any minnow imitation or nymph but if you are fishing the mainlake and are sight fishing to them them then I would stick to a nymph of some kind. As far as bait, sweet corn soaked in kool-aid or jello works great using a carolina rig on a #6 circle hook

Buffs love Strawberry flavored baits from my experience. The sweeter that bait the better. Try to use small baits like Maize.
