Too cold?? I would love to see 35 degrees. It is 7 degrees right now with a -8 wind chill (western burgs of Chicago). Suppose to get down to 3 tonight. It was -1 this morning when I headed out the door to goose hunt.
Actually fished the White river below Bull Shoals Dam on Monday and it was in the upper 30s. Fished 3 hours and caught over 20 rainbows.
What size were the rainbows lassig?
They where 11 to 14 inches. Real easy to catch, we where fishing in the state park from shore using 3 way rigs and gulp trout eggs. The leader to the number 6 hook was about 20" long and 4lb mono. The drop was about 6" long alos of 4" mono. We would add just enough split shots so the rig would drift slowly with the current. Remember to use barbless hooks as it is the brown trout spawning area and you cannot keep a brown trout right now
