Trout were moving in and out of grass lines in 10’ of water or less. More erratic baits seemed to hold their attention in the area and produced a good number of bites.

Points
Good early morning bite for feisty rainbow and brown trout. Fishing was good around shallow points with a sharp drop-off. Besides a #0 Mepps spinner, the Rapala ultra light minnow and 2" swim baits on a 1/16 oz ned style jig head all produced fish up to 14 inches. Super fun part of our family vacation!

Fish were tucked under laydowns along the bank. If the trees had vegetation and bluegill in the area they would hold more then one fish.
