That is a beautiful rainbow. I have seen a few other big rainbows caught this year. The slot limits seem to be helping put some larger fish in the river.
I imagine the trout magnet can really slay the trout in the pond when there's no generation. It's a good time for nymphs on a flyrod too, and the TM is about as close to nymphing as you can get with a spinning rod.
When the water's up, I prefer to switch to bigger, faster moving baits.
