Bob, I hear u bud. But, they are so thick in numbers even if u r not targeting them you are still gonna a catch a few. As far as I m concerned we can use bait down stream from the tank bridge regardless of species we are fishing for. That being said, I caught 2 on Sunday( they actually hooked them selves) and both released unharmed. I live up near Mc Kenna and c&r trout all day drifting flies with a small weight, using spinning gear( can't use a fly rod because of my injuries). Also, while drifting worms, one can hook into one of those big ugly suckers and we both know that they fight like hell:)
