I believe they start moving in when the water temps are pushing 45-50 degrees. Best bait I've found for them is a yamamoto senko. Deadly bait under all fishing conditions.

Seems like when the dogwood trees bloom is the time to start fishin it. Call around to the good folks of benton city and ask. Horns rapid park keeper is a good resource!
