After a three week dry spell I finally struck steel at Reiter tonight.This bright hen took down my fourth jig change, a purple and pink w florescent pink head. I tried pink, peach, a pink worm, plus I threw spoons for a bit. Two or three other fish landed this evening including a nice native down at the tail out which fell for a spoon.

Oh and this super cool guy downstream from me netted my fish which was much appreciated.

I was on the Hatch side, 30 ft upstream of the big rock running my jig at 4 feet. I run bobber stops on both sides so I can adjust depth and keep the jig in the strike zone. I am always adjusting height depending on the water depth where I intend to Cast. Run your jig near the bottom and watch your bobber like a hawk.

That is great, I have been out of luck too but did fight one big fish, trying all the colors just like you. Just gotta stay with it!
