Yellow River 13/14 Oct

[jesse1378]

ok first off i dont have a depth finder so i dont know how deep anything was, and i dont have a water temp. the truck said 50 something on the way out there on wed and 60 something on thurs. launched both times at sun up and at Brown's fish camp this time (all the way down ward basin and to the right) since i didnt have time to print off my topo i stayed somewhat close to the boat ramp. on Wed i caught about 10 bass, only 1 keeper. and 3 different species of sunfish. i left about about noonish or so. The current was moving out and at decent speed. as far as river level....if you stand at the boat ramp and look across the river to your right there is the no wake sign. at the bottom there is another sign (diamond road work shape) there was about 6 inches or so sticking out of the water. on thursday almost the whole thing was out of the water. Thursday i caught about a dozen speckled trout (only one was close to keeper) caught 2 pike, one nice one (ill have a pic this week of him) and had a red fish follow my buzzbait. i fished the same area both days but it was like i was fish two completely different rivers. we the water had a greenish tint to it and there was cover on the bank, thursday it was more brown and no cover on the bank. 80% was caught on a spinnerbait, the specks on a rapala, and the panfish on some baits a buddy made for me.

i had alot of fish follow my bait, but not commit. i have read that means the color is wrong. i changed colors. then i changed sizes, depths, and with the crankbaits with and without rattles, but nothing helped. any thoughts?
