On the Wakulla I like to keep two rods rigged. One with a black and yellow or chartreuse Snagless Sally with a chartreuse pork frog trailer. The other with a gold Johnson's spoon with a yellow and white bass strip trailer.

On the St. Marks I like one rod rigged with the above Snagless Sally, and the other with a shallow diving crankbait with a lot of yellow in it.

Now if you see me on either of these rivers, these may not be what I have tied on if I'm messing around trying something different, but these are my go-to confidence lures for these rivers.
