Got out on the water at 6:40am and headed left to go under and pass the bridge. didn't even make 2 minutes into the paddling and had a fish on each line. Got a call from the wife to go up and help her with her two fish that she caught just up the lake. On my way to help her I caught more! We caught our limit in two hours but continued to catch and release for another hour or so. Average size was 13". We used joes flies short striker premium elite lures. They look like wasps/bee's. We also drenched them with garlic oil. Which made a noticeable difference from last weekend. We both limited out last week but it just took double the time. On the second rod we used a bobber, long shanked hook and a night crawler four feet from the surface which worked amazingly well.

Hey Devon, nice catch! But be aware: WDFW regs say that if you are using bait you must stop fishing after you catch 5 trout whether you keep them or not. Not worth the hefty fine if you get caught.

Flyfisherguy thanks for watching out! I'm aware of that particular rule. After we catch our limit we only use our spinner. Bait is put up!
