Grimes is a beautiful lake surrounded by high cliffs of columnar basalt. It was my second time there. We picked our way through the potholes and bumps on the access road and hit the water just before sunrise. The lake was calm compared to the wind and whitecaps last year. The gooey green algae wasn’t too bad at the boat launch or the shallow channel out to the deep water.
We caught and released several Lahanton Cuts in the 3 pound range while trying to hook up with that “big one”. But I ended up keeping one of those gorgeous 3+ pounders. My fishing buddies tell me in years past, 8lb+ fish weren’t uncommon. Oh well, I’m not complaining :)
