Finding bait is key, like always. Old hick hasn't gotten to the point where bait is gathering at any specific area, so you'll be forced to move around and cover a lot of water. I'm not too savvy on priest right now, but I know where to find them once winter has really set in. It's up lake and may require a long paddle. Pm me for this info. Keep trying Williamsport, especially as it gets colder. You may want to try trolling heavy jigheads (1 oz) with a swimming fluke or the havoc 5" paddle tale. The 5" big hammer would be another option. Use bigger baits since the gizzard shad in blue cat lake run large. If you're trolling cranks, go big. Same with spoons, the 5" flutter spoon is good, just be sure to get the lure down (I find the hybrids down to 27').
