Ive been considering going to American Falls Res but have no idea how to fish it. Anyone have some suggestions? Bass or Trout. I would probably troll Rapalas near the Dam?

Seems like early in the year we catch them on varying colors of flat fish or the broke back type rapala in some yellow or orange color. Seems like once you get into one you can circle it and get into more.
