Well we set out from Coulon, nice boat launch. I was told about big trout the south end of Mercer Island. Trolling slow on some choppy water makes for a fun time. We hooked a a few small Rainbows and let those go. After increasing our speed, using 2oz of lead, going out myself 50 pulls and my partner said 65 pulls we hit the jackpot. The fish finder showed lots of big ones and you know
what it wasn't lying. I brought in 4 rainbows all but one over 3 lbs the last one using my scale 4 3/4 lbs. My partner did about the same. We kept 2 each and let the others go. Boy can those fish fight.
