We fished Friday thru Sunday in the afternoon/evenings and did pretty well. Friday we went 15 for 16, Saturday we struggled a bit and ended up 2 for 6, and last night we went 12 for 14. For the weekend we had about half rainbows and half salmon with the exception of our first fish on friday. It was a lake trout that came on a SWR rigger down 55' in 200+ feet of water. We had hits on both spoons and flies, nothing really stood out Friday night. Last night a wire dipsy set on 1.5 out 150' with a green/orange std PK took 5 of our 14 hits, the rest were scattered between riggers, dipsys, lb ball, and a 10 color. We had lots of nice rainbows 10-12 pounds and our biggest salmon was about 17.5#. We found a nice temp. break 50' down in 220'-260' and concentrated on it all weekend. For the first trip of the year I'm happy with the results. Thanks to everyone who shared info last week.

I pulled lines at 9AM after fighting the rollers & chop. |

It laid down nicely as I was able to run full throttle straight out to 200 feet in my 16 footer.
When we stopped to fish it was slow rollers for a 1/2 hour then less than a foot of waves the rest of the night.

Ever find out who keeps drawing wieners on your dirty truck windows?? No, but I think I have an idea who it might be. Just to be safe I'll probably wash the truck before coming over this weekend. |
