What tells you they are post spawn fish? Just curious.

Fat bellies from eating but skinny privates and a lot of worn fins and battle scars. Plus, they were out in the current eating in the main current once the flows dropped.

Nothing on the banks, I mean nada! We did not fish spawning areas if some were still at it.

Sounds like a job for a size 2 Murdich minnow!

Maybe! That was my thinking with a jerkbait (the day after, of course).
