Last year I caught several fish in early May here, so I wanted to try it again. I got there about 7 and the sun was already bright so I was concerned the fish would be in hiding, but they were active until about 9:30. At first there were a few fish eating bugs here and there, so I targeted them and caught a nice cutthroat in about 5 feet of water. Then I moved to my secret spot and started catching bull trout including one about 5 pounds! I think he could be the one I caught in the same spot last year.
Overall, I caught 3 cutthroat and 4 bulls (released). I was kind of hoping to catch a Kokanee so I could taste one, but no luck with them today. It was a very beautiful day and very enjoyable.
