What should I be using for early spring steelhead in michigan right now? Can't drift spawn because I don't have eggs, hate spinners and spoons due to line twist, cranks and jerks haven't been producing since a few weeks ago (May be because there aren't fish in the runs), pink worms on jighead was producing, but might have been fluke.. can't be arsed to use beads because I hate bobber fishing... so I guess I just need validation on my jerk/crank choice. Water temp is hovering just above 40f... low clear water. Saw the first redd of the year yesterday. Perhaps the quick warmup over the last week has made fish slow? When is a good time hardware wise? Worked great from October through January. Been throwing bone/tan, black/silver, blue/silver.
