Hit the 116th hole and decided to venture down stream a bit. Water was clear and the level was perfect, however no fish.
I drifted a purple and black jig under a float with some shrimp scent with no luck. I talked to one guy who said he caught a native earlier but nobody else had anything to report. I also tried corky and yarn but kept hanging up and losing gear.
This leaves me wondering if I should change direction for the rest of the season. Maybe target some lakes of even Area 11 since it just opened. At least I caught one steely this year, better than none.

Just Frustrating.

It’s sad but you are trying to hone your skills on a river with an adult survival rate somewhere around .02%. That means nothing! You would be better served fishing coastal rivers or year round lakes. I feel your pain!
