Decided to try Medical today and got on the water around 11:00 am. The water was calm with a surface temp of 67° and 61° at 20'.

There were no visible hatches and no fish rising. I began at the South Launch and worked my way toward the aerator with a Stayner Ducktail. I caught only one fish after about 20 min and changed to a black/red chironomid and began fishing vertically in about 25' of water. This produced a very nice 21" Tiger Trout after about 20 min. After another hour with no action I noticed a few damsels flying around and decided to get out my mini-tip line and a damsel patter and work the shallows near the West shore. I caught 4 Crappie, with one being nearly 11" long. No luck however on the trout.

After about 1 hour on the water a Game Warden called me in for a license check.....he had just ticked a gentleman who had a stringer with 2 fish and bait and wanted to assure me that he was looking after the fishery. He seemed like a nice guy and I wish him much success in catching poachers.

So in a little over 3 hours I got a couple of nice trout and visited with the Warden......I guess this evens out some of the good days I've had here this year.......: (
