Got onto the water at 6:15 am, nice overcast conditions but the air temp had to be in the low 40's... glad I brought a beanie and warm jacket. Trolled for a solid 2 hours and snagged a couple decent rainbows (11"-12") within the first hour. Mainly using an F-5 flatfish and letting out plenty of line to try and get deep to find the lunkers. The second hour was rather uneventful with one fish getting hooked but lost on the retrieval and only a couple of nibbles besides that. Both fish returned to get caught again. Got off the water around 8:15 or so and by that time the parking lot was getting pretty full. I saw maybe 4-5 boats on the water and around 6 guys fishing off the dock. Oddly, I only saw maybe 1 or 2 risers... not sure if it was too early or if the conditions made a difference.
