    Scored a nice fish this weekend. I ended up fishing a couple different streams and the water levels on both streams was a bit low. Still managed to bring home a two day limit for the weekend.

    I was using an inline spinner w/silver blade, black and silver body and hook dressed with black bucktail. It was an 1/8 ounce spinner similar to a Roostertail but different off brand.

    I also caught other trout on a variety of small spoons. I like to use as light a line as I can get away with. My first choice is 3 pound test in either mono or braid. I’ll go as low as one pound test but it is real easy to break off if you are not extremely careful.
