Fished Rufus for the first time this year. I love fishing this part of the Columbia, so scenic and wild.
Fishing was not red hot but steady. There was no current so I trolled both up and downstream.
I caught two nice triploid rainbows and a walleye. All on a needlefish spoon.
I lost a couple others, all pretty beefy. Perfect weather and a few nice fish. The smoker will be in action tonight.
