Streamers: Didn't Try

Water temps are on the rise with daytime highs in the mid 50s it's been quite pleasant. I've been out on a few trips recently and we've been averaging about a half dozen fish. I went by myself a couple of days ago and managed about the same. Decided to go back to the bobber to see if I could remember how to do it. Thankfully it's easy, and I got about 6 fish from about 11-1. Only saw a couple of fish rising, and made an attempt to fish dries with no real interest on the surface. The fish are in the slowest moving water you can find for the most part. Didn't see much going on in anything shallow or fast, the water is just too cold for that.
