Well, once I heard the fishing was going to be shut down by midnight that day. My wife looked at me and said, you better get your butt going.

I was like, kid with a jet pack on my back. Vroom!

So I hooked up the boat and booked it to my fav lake. I only had 20 minutes or so to spare. But I was like, I'm doing this.

I trolled at 1.0 speed, drop my downriggers at 30' to 32' feet deep with setbacks at 50'.
I used Soldier Soul shrimp lures Purple and yellow/orange.

Sure I caught 2 Cutts and 2 kokanees for total of 4 fish. But in 20 minutes that's pretty good to me for being solo in the wind. ;)

Made a quick youtube video below. I'm glad I got out there before all the drama.
