Default Rvr 2-12

Headed back to round valley yesterday around 11am. Fished 3 rods with power bait till a little after 2pm. Not a touch. This is my second trip there this February without a bite. I’m fishing the same area that I did great at from November-January. Not really sure why it’s been so dead and if it’s worth going back. Do the trout move out to deeper water this time of year? Most of the people that I’ve talked to are having the same results as me.

Yesterday afternoon I casted the Yo Zuri from the far, eastern shore.

C & R'ed a 15" Rainbow. Had another on but lost it.

The previous 3 times there, I got skunked.

I was thinking maybe the same thing, maybe they head deeper. Didnt get skunked all winter till the last 2 trips in Feb. Then hit the BIG skunk twice.

I’ve tried in the past and nothing even comes close to producing the amount of hits like power bait from the shoreline.

Because of a crazy work schedule that’s the time I’ve been fishing there since November and I’ve done great every trip up until February at that time.
