Taught a 4H class today from the bank using KastKing spinning gear (kastking sponsored the event) at Roosevelt lake. The kids were novice anglers and this is their first time ever fishing. The water levels are the highest in history and there is little to no shoreline fishing. I knew it would be tough and the kids needed a technique that was easy and produces with little effort- drop shot wasn’t good for all the structure but POWERSHOT was the trick. 12-15lb KastKing Kovert Flouro, robo worm hook, and 1/4-3/8 dropshot weight. Right now any kind of worm in the trees will produce. From powershot, wacky rig, weightless sanko, pegged sanko, Texas rig worm or brush hog will flat catch em. If flippin use 17-20lb Fluoro. Wind blown bank in afternoon especially productive.
