During an overcast morning near the downwind side with light wind, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During an overcast morning near a firm-bottom flat where food is present, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
While using a simple check of moving water near a clean gravel patch while the water is rising, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.
During an overcast morning near an open-water edge near visible bait, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.
During the start of a weather change near a narrow cove with stable weather, record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
