An amazing two days at this lake. Caught wild rainbows, a limit, fishing from a fallen log on the north west side of the lake. There were lots of people out fishing, but plenty of fish to go around. My brother was casting a fly, my dad threw a spinner, we trolled for a bit, but the fish really wanted power bait on the bottom. These wilde fish could really fight, our biggest was 21.5 inches, but it fought like a steelie. Four pound test line with power bait on about a six foot leader works best. This little lake is a treasure. There's not very much shore access, so bring a machete if your planning to not boat it, but the fish appreciate the extra effort of bushwhacking through to the perfect spot. Lots of little newts that are actually pretty good fighters if you fish a worm on the bottom. Caught a couple little guys that way.
