Decided to take my brother out on my inflatable raft to troll for some trout on diablo. I heard it was a sleeper lake and held some nice fish. We got on the water at about 9:00. It was overcast and about 50 degrees. Not sure about the water temperature though since I left my Humminbird fish finder at Lake Samish the day before, never to be seen again (bummer). Upon clearing the bridge, I immediately hooked up with a nice 17" bull trout trolling at about 10'. We fished until around 1:00, catching 6 more rainbows between 11-15". The rain and wind steadily increased throughout the day, and caused us to end our day early. All fish were caught on Elgin's Gods tooth spoons (nickel/brass,blue/nickel,pink) accompanied by matching 4" Dick nite Dodgers. All fish were caught between 10-25'. Definitely plan on going out there again soon!
