Hit American today hoping to find some fish...arrived around 10 am and left around 2 pm. Not one single bite, had plenty of fish come up from the depths at my lines or dr ball showed up on the FF. Marked a few balls of kokanee and a few others but showed as all red on the ff perch?

Fished DR at 40 and 25 ft two poles. Tried many colors and both wedding rings and hoochies and dodgers. I am attracting them up just need to figure out how to trigger the bite.......just needed more time that I did not have today. Might have to try a super early morning bite?

Anyway no luck yet the north end of the lake is warmer then the VA side and the lake overall is up a few feet from a month ago, sucks because can slide the boat up on the bank as far and had to get my shoes wet.....oh well. The bite should turn on soon as the weather warms up.

Tight lines.

I found that out of 4 hours of video on Saturday only 2 followed it. It was a jointed Rapala. But if we don't go we won't know

Toni, did you use your reel camera underwater? IF yes can you post a picture how you mounted it please? I figured a way to attach it to the DR ball rear hook but what to see what others are doing. I hate seeing the FF lite up with a streak from the depths and follow the boat a bit. Good idea on the Rapala it seems to be working on the east side at Roosevelt lake worth a shot.

Been thinking about Alder it has been holding level for a few weeks now and almost full. The fish should be willing...? Might go this week if I get the time on Thursday looks like a nice day. Alder or PS for salmon....hmmm.
