I went to pass lake for the first time sunday with fellow member fishenfreak. After buying some good looking wolly buggers we headed out to the lake. I picked out a white wooly bugger and ff an olive one. we started trolling these towards one of the points. There were several other boats/pontoons out, mostly people fishing chironomids. We made two passes down and back without any strikes. we were using one floating line and one sinking line. on the next pass ff had a strike. he fought it to the boat and it turned out to be a nice 16 inch triploid. We admired the fish and he was on his way. Not 10 seconds after ff released the fish my rod got buried by a fish. I picked it up and attempted to quickly strip/reel in line. didn't take much to do this as the fish was going. After a strong fight I got the fish to the surface and it turned out to be a nice 18 inch brown-my first ever. After a pic he was on his way. After that the bite was fairly consistent. for the next hour we picked up 3 or four more fish, including a hawg 20 inch bow that ff got. no pic as he popped off the hook next to the boat. After this the fishing slowed down. We left about 2 and the tally was 11 fish landed and a few more lost. All the fish were fat and healthy, a couple jumped 5 or 6 times, and all had line singing off the reel on the strike. A very good day for my first time at pass.
