It's kinda like that bowl of candy next to the recliner while watching football. As long as you're sitting there at arms reach you'll probably grab some as the mood hits you but when supper time comes your more interested in that steak on the table.

Just my guess on them and trout magnets. The predatory trout will feed at night most the time unless its high water to where they are comfortable. Usually during the daytime hours you want to invade their space with something to piss them off because they tend to rest then.

Well said.

Thanks guys. I don't think the river will be suitable for TM fishing for a while with constant generation plus sluice. I plan on going tomorrow afternoon possibly to fish for stripers below the dam. Once we have wading windows I'll give the TM's another shot
