ARRIVED AT THE LAKE AT 830PM. THE LAKE AND ATMOSPHERE WERE SO QUIET THAT ALL YOU COULD HEAR WERE FISH JUMPING, SPLASHING, AND MAKING WAVES. COHO SALMON EVERYWHERE CHASING MOSQUITOES. THE FISH WERE JUMPING SO MUCH, I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. USED A BLACK 3 INCH FLOATING RAPALLA AND CAUGHT 10 BASS FROM 6 INCHES TO 12 INCHES AND THEY WERE REALLY FAT, JUST NOT LONG. CAUGHT ONE COHO OFF MY FLY ROD, GOOD PULLING AND JUMPING BUT ONLY 12 INCHES. SAW LOTS OF DEER, AND HEARD A LOT OF COYOTES HOWLING AT THE MOON, LEFT AT 945PM A VERY HAPPY, CONTENT FISHERMAN, FINALLY THE FISH ARE BITING.
