Three fish in three hours today. 2 fish out of Whallons, 1 off Thompson's point.
Couldn't get the new E-Chip dodger with a fly to fire.
Rigger took one laker (2 pounder?) and one landlandlocked (16").
Slide-diver took a laker maybe 4 pounds?
Washed lots of spoons...
Hope to see it pick up soon!
Saw one other boat out there.

Re: Three strikes
Mark...not sure if they were mature enough, maybe the larger one was mature enough to spawn. Both had flat bellies.MarknFish (Mark) wrote:Raz- thanks for the report. Are the lakers spawned out?

Re: Three strikes
Should mention...
I got this great new rod I was trying out. Made my Mike Hogg of Crossroads Bait and Tackle.
Light/strong Lamiglas blank, quality Fuji reel seat, cork handle, 7 foot/one piece rod.
I only did one laker on it.
But...
It's going to be a killer on the Landlocks!!!

Re: Three strikes
Getting time to try my fall area - should be some fish hitting. From what I am seeing with the ladder on the Boquet it could be a later start this year.
Salmon, the other pink meat.
Re: Three strikes
I have one of those rods it has my name on it! There is nothing cooler than seeing your name on a rod.
I was putting 25-30lb fish in the boat with a Light action rod. They are tough as nails!
Great post Gerry!
