RVR, the far side

[Mark B.]

Began my annual fall / winter pilgrimage to the eastern shore wading / casting the Yo Zuri.

A week ago, caught only a smallie.

Yesterday, caught & released: 18” rainbow & 24” rainbow (“He was a big fat pig of a fish.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_YaSAZqcjA)

Had 2 other, smaller rainbows on, that jumped & got off.

Sounds good, Mark.

I never tried wading there. Last time I went there I noticed how much it would help getting past the shallow parts. Any advice on wading because I noticed some of the banks of RV are very muddy.

I used to hit RV a lot when I started to fish but pretty much gave up on it once i noticed how fun the rivers were. Sounds like the time to get back at it.

Last fall / winter the water level was way down. I tried wading, & sunk in the silt almost to my knees. I didn’t go back.

Now, that the water level is up some, the wading is fine.

Awesome report! Which Yo Zuri model were you throwing? I'm always looking for new lures to try.

A version no longer produced but coveted by those who have them

Damn! I'm feeling like this right now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9jjK6zU4ZU

Guess I'll have to find some other new lures to try! Been meaning to pickup a binsky for awhile now.

I once watched a guy slay bows at rvr with a 1/4 oz silver binksy from shore. It was pretty crazy
