Fishing Techniques

• For Rainbow trout

  Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.

• For Northern pikeminnow

  Focus on areas with structure like submerged trees or rock piles, as Northern pikeminnow often ambush prey from these locations; vary your retrieve until you find what triggers a strike.

• For Steelhead

  Adjust your presentation based on water clarity and current speed; lighter line and smaller lures are often more effective in clear, slow-moving water.
