Casey123 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) Every year we fish a favourite trib in central ontario. We fish it opening weekend and always have great sucess with lower then average pressure for the weekend. On the strech of the river, there is a beauty hole, 10 feet + in depth and very, very long. Problem is, the steelies never stack up in the hole. They always sit in the rifts and log jams up stream and down stream but I have never seen or caught a fish in the hole. The trib is a nice gravel bottom with gin clear water(my fav water condition to fish). Thanks in advance Michael Edited April 1, 2008 by 4Reel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccmtcanada Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 What CC said....they need the high oxygen levels in the rifts for their eggs to survive from what I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey123 Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Thanks, That answers my question. Logic, what a beautiful thing. I guess in the summer, I am use to the native trout seeking out the deep holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
