The bite is on at Riffle lake. I went to the fishing area at the dam this time and wasn't sure what to expect. It isn't set up for boats, I had to lug my kayak down about 150 yards of rocky, loose, bank. It was worth it though. I started catching almost immediately and I think I landed close to 15 salmon today, plus one small smallmouth. They were biting until I left at 1:00. The water isn't cold yet, I would say it's around 60. I actually put my foot and calf in so I could get a reasonably accurate temp. Almost all the fish are 10-11 inches, I caught a couple maybe a little bigger. I had one OK sized smallmouth on I think, I heard it shaking and the splash was kind of big, I wish I knew more about the smallmouth here. No trout today.

Thanks for the report, been thinking about going there. So you got your fish in the morning hours, were they still biting when you left?
