During a calm morning near a firm-bottom flat away from empty shoreline, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.

During a bright afternoon near a rocky edge before changing depth, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.

During a short evening pass near a rocky edge in stained water, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

During a warm summer afternoon near a creek-side turn where two features meet, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

During a slow shoreline pass near a creek-side turn with a slow lure, Other targets listed here include Brown Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.

How to Read the Water

During a bright afternoon near the outside weed line with stable weather, Make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.

Season by Season

While using one careful route near the first break with stable weather, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a methodical search near a windblown shore while the water is rising, 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 first pass near a creek-side turn away from empty shoreline, record the wind, water color, depth that produced twice, 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.
