Fished from 4pm to about 7pm. Fished the mouth of Issaquah Creek, weather buoy, and two locations off of points along the east shoreline that are highlighted in Paul Lewis' video about hot spots on the lake. No hits. Not much to see on the sonar. Dead calm water. Surface temp was about 50.5. Air temp 60.

Tried God's Tooth, Reli, wedding ring in chrome/black and other assorted bits, all fished behind a couple of different dodgers. Fished anywhere from 10-50' on downriggers. I talked to two other boats and no one reported any hits whatsoever. It seems like March is always a tough month on the lake, so getting skunked wasn't a total surprise.

I'm going out tomorrow morning with a friend from church, and I hope he doesn't get turned off to fishing when the day ends up being a dud.
