What I wouldn’t do to be drifting sand eels on the river right now. Bout the end of prime time soon in the river here. Once it warms up the blues take over and you need to be in the mouth or beyond for lots of fish but some big fish still come up the river especially night tides
It's not a "true" Golden rainbow thus the Hybrid part. Hatchery workers noticed some fish with gold flecks in them so they steadily crossed them until they got the one I showed.

That first one you showed looked like a real Golden Rainbow since it had the pink stripe and fins. But I don't know. Whatever it is, was cool,
I am pretty sure it was caught in the White river in AR where I caught em, might be an Adult/Juvenile coloration difference.That first one you showed looked like a real Golden Rainbow since it had the pink stripe and fins. But I don't know. Whatever it is, was cool,
All released of course.
Edit: I'm waiting for the "Sad Face" emogi from @curioous2guarden any moment now.

"In 1860, this species, taken on incidental catches of other fishes, was killed and dumped back in the lake, piled up on shore to dry and be burned, fed to pigs, or dug into the earth as fertilizer. It was even stacked like cordwood and used to fuel steamboats"

Bringing back the giant Lake Erie sturgeon; stocking Maumee River and maybe the Cuyahoga
Fingerling sturgeon less than a year old are being stocked in the Maumee River each fall. The Cuyahoga River is also being assessed as a potential spawning ground for the giant of the Great Lakes.

Lobster has the same story...

Extinction almost happened with the American Bison and did with the Passenger Pigeon.
"One flock in 1866 in southern Ontario was described as being 1 mi (1.5 km) wide and 300 mi (500 km) long, took 14 hours to pass, and held in excess of 3.5 billion birds."
"John Audubon states he saw that day what he thought to be the largest flight of passenger pigeons he had ever seen. The air was literally filled with them; and the "light of noonday was obscured as by an eclipse." Before sunset he reached Louisville, fifty five miles from Hardensburgh, and during all that time Pigeons were passing in undiminished numbers. This continued for three days in succession" He said: “The enormous multitudes of the pigeons made such an impression upon the mind that the extinction of the species at that time, and for many years afterward, seemed an an impossibility..”

I was out by the road raking yesterday afternoon, Cousin Tom was coming back from the river and he stopped to talk. The river is really low right now and he said the bass are biting good. Low water phase is 8.9 feet and we are at 9.03.
This was down at the mouth a couple weeks ago. It's a little lower now.

Low here I'm wanting to go to the Lake and fill the Freezer but they was talking about it turning over. Don't know what that will do to the bite.

Well I'm fishing from the bank I have problems getting in a boat. I sold all my boats, had a big nice one.

The same should apply. Find the deeper banks or atleast deep water close by. If the lake is fed and or connected by rivers or streams , those areas or find the creek channel is where id start. It doesn’t take that long to flip and a good few should be back in the coves before you know it. Some , usually the bigger fish will remain offshore for the winter

I usually fish a creek running into the Lake if we can get in there .
Usually it is too muddy for my car but it shouldn't be a problem now.
