The salmon are feeding on the alewives in the low light hours and running miles back to deeper sanctuary during the day. Spoons down near the bottom and surface patterns(yellow-birds...) with small weights (5/8 oz. and smaller) with small dodgers and tiny flies are taking the Steelhead and Cohos. Lake Trout are plentiful outside of 80 feet of water, down near the bottom with larger dodgers and "green crinkle" flies. Early mornings there are cohos and browns near the shore, even saw a bunch of cohos in the harbor while perch fishing. BTW the perch are in the harbors and just outside, hitting minnows. I catch them on a "paddle-bug" jig with a small split shot above it.Monday, May 24, 2010
Great Spring Fishing!
