The water is only going to get warmer and with it more fish activity.

Thanks for the info, but my trips down to SD will be few and far between.
That was my main issue yesterday: absolutely no reference point in matching the bait. The only living beings I witnessed in my 3ish hour float was micro. That's it.

Same here, I know colors, more often than not, catch more fisherman than fish, but there is some truth to matching the hatch and presenting an attractive bait. Bummer to hear that now...I had 4" CRF big hammers on deck that I could have thrown on a small jighead.....
