Today I am calling it a Logging day..We did nothing but Yard um in. If there was a rating 6 STARS this would have been the day.

Started in the Abyss above the Yacht Club targeting depths of 250 to 335ft. to find a few laketrout and boating our biggest at just under 10lbs. Bite was slow up there so I motored down to the lower Basin off Rocky Point and and Wow whaty a great bite..

Fished the Ace Hi-fly in Green to be most productive..Troll this bait within 1 to 3 ft. off the bottom at 1.2 to 1.4 mph. I did try some custom Spoons today that Bill Johnson brought along and I believe we got 6 on the new spoons.

With all that said we ended the day with 23 Laketrout. This will go down in my book in the top 20 trips of my guiding career..

A big thanks to Jeff Metcalf and son Nate(8yrs. old) of Mount Vernon along with Bill Johnson of Arlington for fishing with me today..I got to say to Nate, who is 8 yrs old ,wow what a treat to have you on the boat and you did a great job helping me with the fish..Tight Lines to all and be safe
