Re: Weather
2- 4 oz should do you more than enough, heck even 1-1/2 cast up current and worked back would be fine as long as your using braid.

Re: Weather
early in the year fish are sometimes sluggish and killies will outcatch the jigs. so don't get discouraged if the bucktails do not work like magic, come july & august is when they really make a difference. try a double bucktail rig or jig/teaser fish a 2-4 oz bucktail on the bottom & 6-10 inches up fish a smaller 1/4-1oz bucktail or a 3/0 hook with a 3inch glow gulp
