Hi Guys
Headed up to Priest Lake Friday to do some Mackinaw fishing . The lake was high , but had calm winds . We trolled squids behind dodgers around the 100 ' mark . We caught 12 Mac's before the day was over and brought home 10 . They ranged between 3lbs to 16 lbs , great day to be on the water . Here is a photo of Mike Duffey holding up a pair he caught on a double take down , we had our hands full at the time .

Fish On

Great report Charlie and nice fish too! I've thought about fishing several ID lakes lately, LPO, CDA, and Priest, but water levels are finally back up at Roosevelt. Guess I need to get the boat back together. We should hook up some time. :-)

I fished saturday june 10 at priest lake only landed five me and the wife. four were 20 inches one smaller. I use to hook up with
bigger macks. Last year the same all around five lbs. Seems to me the fishing is not that great like it was for bigger fish. I was
using down riggers we caught the fish at 145 ft down in around 150ft of water. Five feet from the bottom. We didn't mark any fish

the whole time. When you say fishing the 100ft mark was that the total depth. thanks for your report. Bob from Post Falls Id
