While out yesterday fishing I caught my first summer steelhead of the year.
I was asked by a couple gentlemen what I caught it on.
I said a "spoon". They we're like "what?? A SPOON!" :lol: Like that was weird or something.
I looked at their tackle. All they had we're a TON of jigs.
I was down there before anyone yesterday and I fished 3 different jigs REALLY hard with no takes... I covered all kinds of productive water. So then I said hmmm... Im gonna try a spoon. Second cast BAM fish on.
So the moral of the story... don't use something because it's the "fad" of the area. Use what looks productive to the type of water you fish. I hear a lot
of guys always saying something like "oh they were only biting an orange corkie with green yarn yesterday", then the next week or two you'll see 50 guys throwing that exact same thing!!! LMAO :lol:
Bring a few small tackle trays of different things for different types of water and learn more then just one technique. This is my .02 though... If you really only wan2 know one technique that's up to you.
More fish for me.
