after reading and commenting on some post about recent keaton activity..someone mentioned that my trip this weekend with several young boys might want to include fishing for bsb's...which got me to thinking, I've never actually targeted them before....caught some here and there, but never went to specifically catch them....with that said, seen that it was mentioned to find 10-12 foot of water.....THEN WHAT???

deepest water I ever see is when I cross a pretty deep ditch/creek between the southern most birdrack and the dogshead.....will they hit a 1/4oz jighead with a gulp on it with any consistancy??? do I need to find 12' with structure...what exactly do you look for to locate the "endangered BSB's????

if I ever get to 4' of water I've always thought I was already in way to deep of water for trout and reds....

I will most likely be fishing fri. sat, and sun somewhere between Keaton and Spring Warrior

any input would be appreciated

1/4 oz jig will work great.

4' isn't too deep for trout or reds if you have the correct bottom. I've had many experiences where they'll rise from 6'+ to hit topwaters. That being said, most are slot fish, but some are larger.

Let me clarify my 4' comment.....the shallow to extremely shallow has just been my preferred way of catching trout and reds I know a lot of peeps drift the deeper water just not my favorite way of fishing

I too would like to know how to target them. I have caught them on a rock pile in 10' of water with a 4" gulp up to 16" long. (the fish not the gulp)
