Fishing blown out water

[MichaelAngelo]

Based on his Facebook pictures - an acquaintance of mine seems to be doing quite well on the rivers right now... and they're all blown out!

He mentioned using bright colours... but I recon there's more to it than that.

In blown out water, where does one find the fish?

Off under the banks? Behind rocks? Deep pools? Moving up the main flow?

Getting the bait down to the level of the fish is also challenging... lots of lead and big floats? Or just forgo the float and bottom bounce?

I had a lot of trouble today, I saw the odd fish splashing around every once and a while, but I don't think I even come close to getting my bait in front of one. Not that I could see much under the water anyways LOL
