Nice cold day to start out the 2009 fishing season. Sunny skies prevailed over a foggy morning. Caught fish consistently all day trolling plugs and flies. Didn't get any fish casting today. Primarily rainbows, 4 to 1 on the rainbow to brown count. Fish were primarily at 20 to 25 feet in depth. Largest fish around 18", smallest at 14".

The inlet didn't prove to be the hot spot although it is putting a 300 yard plume of mud into the system. Clear waters for the lake however, 36 degrees. As usual, great mid-winter fishing at Rock.

P.S. Water is high enough to make launching a non effort.

Did you see any fish surfacing at all, also did you mark any fish in the 50' or deeper range and if you did did they show up as bigger fish on the finder.

Only the little guys were on top eustace. The big fish on the finder, most likely carp, were holding a few inches off the bottom around major structure in 40 feet. Granted, because there's no steel wire on my boat, I put the 'bird on a max of 40' depth. Past that doesn't do me much good.
