Gray scud, size 16 and as "furry" as possible will take em all day long, as will stripping an olive and gold bugger.

If you're in a boat, the White can be super productive when they're generating. The "high water rodeo" can be awesome, especially if there's a shad kill happening.

But yeah, you don't want to wade when they're generating.
