Got to Lake Ballinger at 5:30am. Figured with everyone out on Washington for sockeye it would be nice and quiet casting off the dock. 4 on the dock when we arrived. No luck with a green wedding ring so I switched to pink power bait. About 7am one guy started pulling 'em in left and right. He was using drop weight 36" leader w/yellow power bait. He release a couple small guys and limited out with 4 Bows just around 12". Only had my pink PB so I couldn't switch it up. Left at 10am with only a few hits and one lost at the dock. Beautiful morning though.
