Cut our Canadian adventure short and got into town in the late afternoon. We decided to hit Tapps for smallies. Arrived around 4:30PM. Being an ESOX guy,I tossed a few times for tigers but then switched to smallies. I had a Kastmaster on my line from my previous trout trip. I left it on just to see what would happen. NO BULL,first cast and caught a tough fighting smallie(maybe a pound)My son was going crazy(he had to touch it) My wife hooked one up minutes later but at the last moment it threw the hook(Maybe 3 pounds) Caught a total of 6 smallies(largest was around 2 pounds) Unknown water temp,sunny. All were caught on Acme Kastmaster's Rainbow.

All were C&R'ed

Good times! Nothing like being out with the family and catching rather than just fishing! Good job. Water temp is between 60-65 depending on where you're at.
