We fished the east shoreline just north of the Spokane Confluence yesterday. Our setup was two downriggers and then a third rod trolling near the surface (with anywhere from 1/2 ounce to 1.5 ounces of trolling weight).

The primary purpose of the trip was to test a new variation of the OG1 2.8" in the perch pattern. (We applied a new translucent green to the lure body instead of the olive green in the original lure.) The results were impressive: The new lure took eleven 'bows. Three were unclipped and returned to the reservoir.

The most effective depth was 21 feet on the downrigger with 60 feet of line behind the boat. Our trolling speed varied from 2mph to 2.5mph. We were pulling the lures in water depths ranging from 30 to 70 feet.

I'm attaching pictures of the new lure and the results to this report.
