Night Bite

[ryan]

Fished wed. night with my little brother started at 1030 and fished till about 0230 am dead drifting leaches and buggers caught about 50 fish with one rainbow that had to be 6lbs or better. We were the only two on the river it was awsome. Upon releasing the rainbow I noticed it was dropping eggs like crazy I don't know if the fish was spawning at the time or was stressed from the fight but it was definetly dropping eggs anybody been fishing any egg patterns lately?

Two of my coworkers fished below the dam this past weekend and reported seeing a few fish in rends that appered to be dropping eggs. They caught a couple of fish that were milking as they were releasing them but no reports of fish dropping eggs when caught.

I fish a glo ball year round. I firmly believe it is a reaction bite and you only have one or two shots at a fish or group of fish and then they wise up and you will have to move on or change patterns. Rainbows like the glo balls and the browns will simply kill them. The only bad thing is I miss a lot of fish because I watch the strike and set up on them to soon.

The CA Shasta strain rainbows / i.e. Shasta's are Crane fish / spawn in the spring. ( maybe early .. maybe on time. maybe late.. ) That includes the cuttbow looking fish.. not the newly introduced smaller Neosho fish.

Egg patterns fool trout all year The patterns just works!
