Reef Runner Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Headed to a cottage around Kearney this May 2-4 and was reading they got whitties in there. Never targeted them. Water should still be cold come a few weeks. What depths would they be holding at? Any preferred presentations? I'll be long-line trolling for early season lakers (stocked) so hoping to tie into an incidental whittie. Thanks fellas, Reef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cisco Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Don't get whitefish generally by trolling. Unless real slow with worm harnesses along bottom. They seem to gather in Spring on or related to shoals anywhere from 10 o 30 ft deep. So jigging spoons/rapalas/Meegs jigs or Vibratos work well on Simcoe. I know they are specialists at stealing minnow off hook. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
