Be careful at Jerome rd rapids – water is moving fast up there , probably best to skip it.
Big push of walleye moving in with all this water.
Colors: The darker colors have been working the last few days. Orange head/ Black Tail, Glow head / Purple tail, old reliable Green head / Xmas lights tail, and Black head / orange sparkle tail.
Today with this high water the two best places to fish will be Orleans and White street–also along the Towpath and Ford Street access will be likely places to hit as well. Tactics have to be adjusted to catch fish in this high water- of course heavier weights are required to get that lure down to the fish , but also placement is key. Look for any slight break or eddy in the current- thats where they are laid up.
Fish close into shore. Look for those little breaks in the current where a log or rock may be slowing the water down just a bit. Short cast up stream . Usually no more that 20-25 feet and try to get the lure to drift into that current break. When it hits that current break, get ready , there may be a good number of walleye layed up in there ready to hit.
No need to try and cast across the river when a good number of the fish will probably be right in front of you.
Have fun , be safe and good luck fishing
