Trolled the lake today from 8:30 to 1:30, four hits and one fish a small pickeral. Two hits were major with one pulling down our big planer board, just couldn't hook up. Nice day on the water , no one out fishing, surface temp was 57. Lots of fish on the graph mostly on drop offs and down deep.

Hi Fishoff thanks for the reply, I live in Vernon. I am going to be out there a bunch in April. I just got a jon boat with trolling motor. Going to try for the trout!?

First and only time i fished for trout was in that boat with my buddy and his dad when i was probably 11 years old... was a blast.. caught two trout.. he let me keep them... he hooked his dad's hat when casting and his dad got mad... was so memorable and such a great time...

that's one place i'd like to get out when my 'yak arrives... i dont' live too far so i imagine i'll be taking the trip after work!

Tons of places to fish on that lake in a yak. Once u get away from the beach in the summer, there are tons of coves with lily pads to hit.

I actually was out on the lake last Friday. Tried trolling with a sinking rap and also a dodger with worm. Nothing hit, Marking a lot of fish on the bottom. Do I need a down rigger to get to the trout? I also tried jigging with a swimbait and also a worm down deep, not even a nible? I did manage to hookup on a small LMB on the way in, throwing the sinking rap at a submerged log. hope to see you out there on the water in a yak or jon boat.
