With Cabin fever I decided to brave the 20 degrees and try and find some crappie/perch. Launched at the park and made it to the narrows where the ice stopped me, so decided to troll for trips back to the launch. I was using a perch colored trolling fly on one down rigger at 10’ and long lined a perch colored crocodile on the other. I caught 2 fish on the fly including a really nice bright colored rainbow. I caught the smaller of the three on the crocodile very near the surface. Water temp was 36 and speed was between 2.1 and 2.3.

Thanks for the report. What narrows are you talking about? I assume you launched at the confluence? Thanks

I launched at the Suncrest Park Launch. What I call the narrows is between Feltons and the TumTum bay. Don't know if it's still frozen or not, but I'll probably try again on Monday. There was only an inch or less of ice.

Downrigger, this is my first post. Do you know why it doesn't appear under Long Lake reports? Did I do something wrong?

Thanks

Long Lake, as we who are from Spokane call it, is actually Lake Spokane (Long) in the listing. It is also located in the Spokane County list and not Stevens. Hope that helps - Alan
