I generally mix it up, but if I'm fishing a lake that I know has a certain kind of bait in abundance I'll match the hatch. ie. my favorite walleye lake has a lot of white suckers in it so I will use 3-4" sucker minnows if I can get them.

i been mixing it up this year for early ice, and all my eye's have came on suckers. pretty much any size but the larger 4'' + has been doing better than the smaller ones.

havent got them to touch my artificials yet ><

depends on the hatch/lake.
