I have been out bait,spinning and fly fishing and the one thing I can say is if that water is still and clear be sure you downsize that line. Bait fishing has been great for me with crawlers and the typical stuff. I have taken it down to 2lb maxima while the water is still and clear. Upstream you will need the 2lb if you are casting jigs with your spinning gear. Maxima is ok but Fluorocarbon is worth the money as you can watch these fish swim up and see your line before rejection. Micros are also still working well. Now if they have some water moving or there is enough wind then the line is not nearly as much an issue.

"ONE MORE CAST"

Posted

Update.. Started up by Andys in a thick fog this morning. Water was perfectly still and clear. Began with a jig and float but my clients were struggling with the take. I kept downsizing the line but realized later on a short cast that these fish were hitting the jigs repeatedly and the indicator was not even budging. We gave it a while but could only get hook ups on the heavy takes. A good sight fisherman could have hammered them. In that still water you gotta watch the jig.. The indicator is just to float it. ..Ended up going back to the bait fishin again.. It was good again...looked like everyone was picking up a few below.. Anyone got anything good to add? Haven't seen any huge trout pics lately.. Well recent ones anyway.
