It started out as a tough day on the water considering I have never fished this river before. I noticed fish slurping bugs off the surface. Tied on a hellgrammite and starting picking up rock bass. Found a shore line with large chunk rocks and that’s when the pattern showed itself. Fish were not wanting any baitfish presentations at all. If there fish are anything like my smallies back home then a hellgrammite should do the trick. The tungsten Ned head really helps you detect super soft bites. These GLF plastic baits are pretty dang durable. Big fan here. Hope you river rats give em a try.
