Gary,

I've picked up a couple of stray pickerel in Upstate South Carolina while fishing for LMB. I've gotten most of mine on white, size #2 gurgle pops. I have to agree with Dixieangler that crease flies would be ideal.

One other point, I remember from my hardware chucking days that pond pickerel in Maryland had a real thing for red and white Daredevil spoons. I would try some red and white combinations in poppers or streamers. Good luck. Remember to avoid a thumb hold on the pickerel's lower jaw. 8T

You had better learn to be a happy camper. You only get one try at this campground and it's a real short camping season.
