Jen Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Well that was the outcome... I went fishing with my dad and little sister on Saturday morning. After listening to the man coming in say it was rough and there were no fish we looked at one another questioningly...shrugged our shoulders and decided we were going out anyway. It was calm within a couple of hours. We put the lines out once we hit 40 fow. Downriggers at 20ft with spin doctors and flys back 30ft, and our beautiful day began. Two knock offs and no fish in the boat. I just couldn't set a hook for the life of me. At 100fow, we put out dipsy's on a 3 setting back 92ft with green ladder back and bloody nose moonshine lures hitting two fish within the first few minutes... Dad knew where the fish were for sure...in four hours, four fish and we were headed home. A great day on the water, lots of fun and the best way to relax away a Saturday. All going on the smoker tonight.
The JAY Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Nice report Jen. Days like that are always great. The fish are just a nice bonus!
Rod Caster Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 This is the first post where I can say you've made my wife jealous... She LOVES smoked rainbow trout

Roy Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 What a super day for your Dad, Sis and yourself, Bernadette. Good sized eaters there also! Betcha Sonny's smiling ear to ear right now.
Jen Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Posted August 22, 2012 What a super day for your Dad, Sis and yourself, Bernadette. Good sized eaters there also! Betcha Sonny's smiling ear to ear right now. I am betting he is laughing his ass off Roy! Got home and notice that the bunks on the trailer needed replacing, the wire on the riggers was unravelling, a good four hours of maintenance needed doing! Little bratt has his feet up fishing some well stocked heavenly lake I am sure...Thanks for the comments, can't wait to get out again.
fishnsled Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 Time on the water with family can't be beat! Great report Jen.
