Start with Marabou Damsel (8-12) — on the point. Midday in warm weather — switch to a fast-sink or Di-7 and fish boobies or blobs along the bottom. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses.
If the main plan stalls, drop to a size 14–16 midge — switch to a washing-line or suspender rig and change drift line before you change food group.
Silverhorn should come on through the afternoon as the water warms.
Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.
