Marshall Lake, skunked.

Post by Lotech Joe » Mon Jul 12, 2010 3:28 am

I fished Marshall Lake in Pend Orielle county Saturday and got skunked. I rowed about half the lake dragging last year's favorite fly and the only bite I got was as I was getting ready to leave the lake. There must have been a wind storm earlier because there was a lot of debris on the surface, plus there was lots of pine pollen. The 4" dinks were taking wind drifted midges but that was the only action I saw. I didn't even bother to post a report. It's a beautiful lake but there were no fish to be had on that Saturday.
Where you go is less important than how you get there.

Sorry to hear that, Joe! My favorite local lake, Medical, has slowed tremendously these past few weeks. Although it's been a cooler spring/summer thus far, I think the summer doldrums have set it. Now, we'll have to wait until September!
