Hit the lake at around 830 AM with my brother and girlfriend. We trolled all kinds of things, a fly on top, pop gear with a spoon or needlefish, flatfish and rooster tails. My brother just caught a tiny 6" Rainbow on his pop gear. After an hour, we anchored up in our spot to still fish. We hooked up consistently for 2 hours off the bottom with pink/orange power bait or pink garlic power eggs with about 3.5' to 4.5' leaders. My girlfriend caught the first one, followed by 3 for me, including one cutthroat, all around 12.5". My brother hooked a lunker but his line got caught up in the stringer and when I went to net the fish, it got off, I felt bad. Overall, it was a great day on the water.
