I chucked a foam head hopper about 2m in front of them and left it to drift right over them. First cast got smacked......and so it went. If I remeber correctly, I caught 7 fish in that one rappid - did'nt move once. The thing was.......it was about 6 in the evening, and what's the chances of seven hoppers falling in the same place........fish still wacked it! More proof that yellow's are oppertunistic hunters.
One might call them HOPPERtunistic feeders... (how lame was that?)
No seriously they like them but yellows can be like crows at the best of times
