You guys should know by now, that our local rivers can have fish in them on both sides of the "season". Things have changed over the years.....water temps and flow volume are really important, and for those of you who don't think there are fish in the cap unless there are a thousand guys fishing there are dead wrong....Sure you have to work for them, but they are quality fish and VERY scrappy!!.........When the dam is dumping water for flood control....this is always a good time to wet a line...........Ortho
