Devan S. 729 Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Fished a busy Parker bottoms Saturday for a short time. Managed a couple small rainbows and couple small browns. Buddy caught a nice 17" rainbow and I stuck this nice brown in the same spot. Didn't get a good length but weighed 3.5lbs on my scales. nomolites, marcusearlt, Greasy B and 6 others 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you need barbless hooks to fish the special regs area? I would say 50/50 on wading vs. bank fishing. I'm either throwing jigs or jerkbait so I do both but I'm moving alot. I'm not looking to work over a school of rainbows for the day I want to catch 1 or 2 big fish and then I'm gone. Lots of people bring lawn chairs and sit soaking bait. If there generation there's still options but it cuts them down significantly. Downstream from parkers anything goes basically. There's 3 or 4 walk in access points between the Bertrand boat ramp and the parkers parking lot. About a couple hundred yards upstream of parkers is the special regs and you need to be barbless there but without a kayak its difficult to access this area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
