Members Beaverdamstore Posted August 17, 2015 Members Posted August 17, 2015 I had trips 4 days last week. Water is dropping slowly. Yesterday I saw a few wadable spots but you need a boat or yak to get to them. And have to be able to cast 50' or better. We did very well using everything from small spoons to marabou jigs from 1/4 oz to PJs 1/100 oz in olive,orange is what I tied on. Had a great day yesterday with a family with 3 small kids. Using powerbait the oldest girl caught 2, 15" rainbows right away. I used the yellow and white power bait and they caught a lot of fish. Tons of fun with those kids. I saw a few people fly fishing but didn't see or hear of any of them doing very well. Jim jtram 1
Amery Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I'm gonna have to hit it up soon with the flyrod just for the challenge. You fishing the jigs under a float?
jtram Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Very glad to hear its beginning to show a few spots to wade, im dying for some tailwater fishing. Amery 1
Members Beaverdamstore Posted August 19, 2015 Author Members Posted August 19, 2015 Got a few hits yesterday on a #18 Prince Nymph. Talked to one guy that caught at least one on a Pheasant Tail. The jigs I have used were big and on a spinning rod, 1/8-1/4oz so I would bet a Micro Jig or small PJs will get some attention. About the only current you will get is from wind. I have seen enough slot fish to be happy. Along with them the 11-13" are scattered all over the river. Jim
