It was a great winter day out on Chelan. A little warm front pushed the daytime temps well up into the 40's. We had a little epidemic of "pull-offs" at the beginning, but we ended strong with a nice pile of fish and a nice big fish. Thanks to Mike Sprague and his daughters for sharing their special time. We caught fish from 118 to 240 feet deep, but the heart of it was the 220's. Speeds of 1.3 to 1.5 worked best. Everything that we used got bit. I'd say the Worden Lures Purple Glow Flatfish in both T4 and U20 got hit a bit more. Mack's Lures Cha Cha Squidder produced well. Silver Horde's Ace Hi Fly also caught some fish. Mild temperatures and virtually no wind was a great bonus today. Also, talking with Mike about our old Army days was a real highlight. It turns out we served in the same unit.
