bait

[gmoore]

anyone have a preferance on bait this time of year---necks, bunker or????? will be on sass river and back creek fri. also what depth might work best?

[Butthead]

Fresh Chicken Necks are the best bait any time of year.

Good Luck on the Sass, but you may want to consider trying a little further south for now. I don't htink too much is happening north of the bridge.

But if you do....I hope you prove me wrong[wink]

fresh white perch, no comparison, caught big crabs when everyone was else went home with small white bellies, and they were crabbing right on top of me!!!!

I always prefer fresh necks if you can get them, but tried frozen white perch for the first time, that I had caught the week before and the heaviest crabs I caught in the bushel were on the perch baits. That was 2 weeks ago. You may be fighting a hard battle that far north, but the water has warmed. Good Luck
