Out of three of us, we caught about 50 fish by noon and released 40 while trolling. Unfortunately, none of the caryovers were biting. At daybreak we fished off the bottom with powerbait and had absolutely no luck which was very unusual for this lake so we trolled the rest of the day. The last visit to this lake produced three fish around 5 pounds in only a half day of fishing by myself. Maybe there are less big fish this year. I asked around and the biggest fish caught was 3 1/2 pounds. I may not drive all the way from Seattle again unless I hear some good news about bigger fish.

Gas prices seemed to limit the amount of people traveling to this lake today. Its too bad because this is a fun lake especially for young kids learning how to fish.
