Merv, we caught Tilapia on Millworms when we fished the steam plant on new years day. I tried using the crappie magnet but think it might be a bit big for most of the tapalia because I could not get a hook up with it. How do you guys fish them, I have tried casting and jigging vertically but they are so light I have a hard time keeping the jig vertical. Do you just let it free fall back to the boat when casting?
If they are feeding with the bluegills, seems like good old nighcrawlers or redworms should entice them too.
Merv, back home, we used nightcrawlers every now and then, the smaller red worms do a better job at catching these jokers, they normally feed at the bottom or a foot or so above the bottom
