[QUOTE="Nsghunter, post: 4792801, member: 14436"] I was kayaking yesterday and the river was LOW and I hard to carry my boat over most of the rapids. I didn't see any trout directly below the rapids but as we made it down the river I started seeing TONS of rainbow in 18 to 24 inches of slow moving water with a real flat sandy bottom. The water was crystal clear and they were loaded. I encountered the same thing three different times on three separate sandy bottoms of the same features, water clarity and depth. One trout seemed HUGE, maybe 20-30 inches. Well, huge to me, it was the biggest fish we seen all day. I have never tried to fish an area like this for rainbow, I always just fished to the outside of the swift water after the rapids. The guy that was with me suggested that maybe they were there because the water was low and they couldn't get near enough to the rapids and possibly had to stay in these areas. Any thoughts on this? Maybe I am wrong and this was a normal thing. How would you fish it? [/QUOTE]
