the wife and i are still at Lilly's .....

Sat and sunday had heavy water flow. Monday, the water flow was decreased !!!!

we caught fish drifting powerbaits ---yellow, orange, and white and pink.

also trolling cowbells with worms behind .... strikes ongoing -- but hooking up on a small percentage.

it has been cool in the mornings. nice by 10:00.

i have tried a motor oil colored jig under a float -- 4 feet and tried to cast and retrieve with 0 strikes.

we are catching and releasing ... no massive numbers - just enough to keep it interesting. the wife is kicking my butt.

the guys in the next cabin hooked a nice brown on power baits today.

i am still trying to figure out lures for these trout...

Got to get the jigs on the bottom, 4 feet is not going to get it. If you are using a spinning rod take the float off and bounce or slow roll the jig on the bottom. If you can find some slack water to pull in, cast into the current and let it drift down and look/feel for strikes when it nears the seam of the current and slack water. If you are using a fly rod you need to have a long leader at least 10ft with the float set slightly deeper than the water depth.

Best of luck.
