Budd used to be a great place to jig up goldens but it's been dead the last few years. Jigging for panfish used to be great too but it's gone downhill and the fish you catch are usually small. Unfortunately I think the bucket brigade cleaned out a lot of fish. I won't be catching any pickerel or panfish at Monksville, I'll be swinging for the fences with all big baits on tipups.
