Why isn't anybody fishing this lake? Spent another wonderful day fishing and swimming, getting away from the heat.
Caught fish all day, again mostly skinny cutthroat, but also hooked in to some really nice kokanee. Not all came in the boat :-(
The difference in a 13" cutty and a 13" koke is roughly double in weight!
They hit on pink all day.

Getting a boat soon, I live about 40 minutes away. I have had my eye on this lake for a while, your reports make me want to get out there! I used to fish American Lake down in the Tacoma area and loved it, this lake seems to be a similar fishery in some ways.

It's a great lake! The launch is a bit of a pain, and the wind can really come up on you, but the fish are plentiful! The road up from Highway 9 is the way to go. Down riggers and a finder help a lot. Early season, McMurray is also a really fun lake to fish for rainbows. Hope to see you up there!
