Two word -there deep-

"Two words -they're deep-" is not entirely correct. Some Lmbs will be deep, while some will still be shallow.. I've caught them in 5-6 FOW in December and a few days later they are in 30 FOW. There are many factors involved here. What lake(s) do you fish?

I know if you want a decent day at perris dot scavenge the shallows every thing i come up on there are the dinks

Get yourself some crawdads and fish them with a small splitshot about 18"up and make a long cast and very slowly, allmost using a stitching the line technique, work the bait in, the bite can be a all out hard hit or a light pickup and swimming with it, for hookset, bow to the fish giving it some line and use a sweeping hookset and let your drag do the work, most fish will be of the bigger size.
