Gin clear conditions are tough I find down sizing to small scorpion size spoons in plain silver or brown trout patterns any pattern that actually represents a small locally found fish. This is what works best for me. I am sure that some of these Great Captains on this site will help you out further
John always is a class act. as are most of the captains out of the oak, including yankee trollers it is the best fishing ports on the lake with some of the best and friendliest captains
Jason I had an awesome day out there Saturday. still tons of fish out deep. we had over 30 bites in 3 1/2 hrs. Steelies were hitting bugs on the surface. we boated 7 matures, and lost at least 2 others.
start at the 30line straight out had a fantastic day out there. ended up with a 4 man limit containing 7 matures 2 coho and three steelies. 75-90 down moonshine geezer and carbon 14 were our best spoons and white green dots with the pro/am glow fly also white 2face with the stud fly took all but 1 of our matures on wire out 255 and 280 on a 2 setting. Also released several 2yr old kings and steelies. a lot of the steelies came on sliders and a ten color leadcore
copper question
I was wondering if weighted steel continues to sink at the same rate with wire for backing, wouldn't copper do the same eliminating the need for several copper rods.
its a spin doctor and fly combo not sure if the fly is still available,as it was produced by siggs riggs and I believe they went out of business but an atomic pro am glow works well also
Thanks for the info guys. I just hope the fishing remains good this year. Last year after the lake flipped the fishing was terrible and it never rebounded.
