Smith and Morehouse- again

[Boisan]

I'm thinking of heading there tomorrow but I have never fished hard water there before. Any tips for a first timer? By opposite the boat ramp and dam, do you mean toward the southern end of the reservoir? Also, I did a google search for "trout magnet" but there were thousands of results, all with different images. Other than small plastics, what jig/bait combo would you recommend? I'd particularly like to target kokes or grayling but a few rainbows would make me feel like I know what I'm doing. I need to wash the skunk off from my short outing at Rockport today. Sounds like S&M would be a good place to do it. Any advice would be appreciated.

Towards the stream and campground end of the reservoir and not the dam side. I was in 20 fow and would aggressively jig off the bottom, pause, and let it drop all the way down again. The grayling and trout were off the bottom and the kokes seemed to be about 12-15' in the water column. I would see them on my flasher when they moved through and reel up to where they were at.


Thanks for the tips! Sounds like a good plan. I'll be sure to post a report when I get back.
