That can be true when things are right...but I've found Monti fish to be a little more contrary than that other little power plant lake to the East. Especially when it's sunny out. If you get a blue bird day the only way I've been able to get bit after the good morning bite is to slow waaaaaay down, deadstick a watermelon red tiki/senko/trick worm or fish similar colors on a drop shot. I'm sure things change day to day and I really have not spent a ton of time on Monti, but I expect you'll get bigger fish on the senko for sure, not as many but there are some monsters to still be found in that lake. BigLeslie - I could not agree more with you on the sunny day part of Monticello! After about 10am it sure can slow down FAST! Happened to me today!

Happened to me today! 4 of my best 5 fish yesterday were caught from 1:00 to 4:30. I had to do something a little different than what had been working due to the wind but as soon as I tried it, it was on like Donky Kong! Lost a giant due to the hook not being big enough so I've gotta do some customizing this weekend. There wasn't a boat within sight of me after 12:00. Having to fight the wind sucked but it was well worth the effort. And no, this time I'm not posting pics or telling about the bait - ya'll have to figure some things out for yourselves
