Rob is great call him a few days before you head up and he will let you know what seems to be working . I know they are expecting a minnow shortage so you my need to bring your own ( shinners they should have lotts of dace ).

lots of minnows there, best is a jigging spoon with a minnow or just a hook and minnow close to bottom, I use a small williams siver blue but have caught them on buck shots cleos etc. very simple.
