[QUOTE="KDM, post: 219327, member: 314"] All the same concepts work at the tailrace as well WW. Current seams up close to the discharge chutes hold most of the trout and the small seams along the shore rocks going down river hold the walleyes. Mostly at night though. During the day it's more difficult to find'em. The BIG current seam that forms on the West side of the tailrace by those high wall things holds fish as well. I tend to fish the east side straight down from the light pole which is normally where the confused water lessens but in front of the smooth water flat that starts towards the end of the rocks. I use a 1/2 oz white jig with a white paddle tail and cast up current at a 45 degree angle and count down 10-15 seconds depending on water flow. Then I tighten up the line and hold. I don't reel in. I let the current do the work. The current will bring the jig to the surface at the end of the hold and then I reel in. Most of my fish hit on the hold or right off shore when I reel in to cast again. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
