Got onto the water around 7:00. Tried unsuccessfully to put my boat in the water. I am just learning to back up a trailer, and Battle Ground does not have a straight launch. Finally a guy came and helped. Once the boat was in the water, however, I didn't do much good there, either. Two bass all day. One five inches, the other six. Both were caught on a small roosertail. Nothing worked for the trout, though. The same guy that helped me put my boat in the water was the only guy to catch anything all day. He got three trout. Not even worms or powerbait on the bottom, which will always catch something worked. Went home at 2:00.
