Perfect day on the lake. Ran out to 73 FOW. Started trolling north. Screen full of fish from 60 to the bottom. Set up dipsies 2.5 setting 175 back and 0 setting at 145. Used chartreuse and yellow spoons. Ran bandits same color and purple and yellow. Flicker minnow in chrome and chartreuse. 3 oz snaps at 250-275 back total. 3 man limit in 2.5 hours. All hogs 26-28 inches except for 3 19 inchers. Won’t be too many more days like this this year as far as the lake being calm. They didn’t want small spoons. All caught on 3.75 inch spoons. One of my buddies got 3 steelhead too on his boat. Days like this make the 2 hour trip up worth every second of fun! A lot of boats out also enjoying the perfect day.

I was out there on Friday too. Took awhile to find them but once I got out to the 05 line, marks lit up my screen. Had a NASCAR spoon on the 3 dipsy, 191 back. Also had a dipsy on the 3 setting with a Bomber Long A behind it at 165. On the 1 dipsy, another Bomber Long A (wonderbread) behind it @ 143. It became a chinese fire drill in short order. Great quality of fish and just a pleasant morning on the lake.
