They are picky no matter what people say. Unless my presentation was just bunk at first lol
Picky? No.
Is there certain gear/bait one should use to match the conditions? Almost always.
Bud, when someone goes and lucks out on Trout, I hardly ever ask what they were using, all I have to do is look at depth, clarity, etc, and just brainstorm to match the conditions. Another factor for them not having interest in the spinner could have been the color of the blade, not from pickyness but spookyness
.
Never have caught a single fish out of that water with a Spinner, spinners are the last thing I resort to for Trout fishing small streams, like I said, conditions.
