There's a great thread already on the Current Forum. You may get some other responses for late spring patterns.

Dang DF, unless you're planning on putting in around 6 am, every fish in the Current is gonna spaz out at the first major aluminum assault of the season. If you are puttin in early...leeches, buggers and prince nymphs are always good producers. Good luck.

Hey DF.

Have to agree with Terrapin, aluminum hatch does kill the bite more than people think. But hey, gotta do what you gotta do.

For bass, crawdad cranks, small, orange and brown. Flukes, whatever color you like. Senko's. Once the first batch of clanging and clanking canoes goes through I recommend Budlight. But judging by your screen name you should be okay in that department.

Binoculars wouldn't hurt, bikini hatch coincides with the aluminum hatch. Sometimes if your lucky the rare no-bikini hatch happens. Don't forget to post a report. Luck to you.

Snagged.

You can catch some fish even with the aluminum hatch going on. The fish have to eat and all the comotion stirs a lot of food. If your caught in traffic, a good trick is to anchor up at the top of a bluff hole and swing you bow out so folks have to go around (Not that I've ever done that before). Look for deep holes with rock, and drag a tube or a 4" grub through the rocks and you should do fine. Any color, as long as its green pumpkin, or green pumpkin with red flake. Cheers.

Perhaps we could coin that "The Aluminum Shuffle."
