Those who don't pontoon will be fishing around the same area out of the boat. I like to fish the south shore for big native rainbow...

3/9/2009 4:23:00 PMMy wife and I trolled for almost 5 hrs. on Sat. the 7th, worked the area within 2 miles of the can line, threw everything at them but no strikes. We talked to 5 other boats, only one fish caught and those folks went all the way from the can line up to one of the pens to catch it .The only other fish we saw were taken earlier in the day by Brandt's landing, from shore on bait, mostly taken in the morn. before the water draw down that started close to noon.
