went up to barker to see the hippies. as always caught half a dozen trout under 7". I swear they must stock 20k of the 3-5 inchers every week. I can not keep the damn things off my hook.
no salmon once again. fished all the way around the lake with all kinds of things. caught a couple keeper trout (biggest at 13.5") with metal one with bait and one with both...I caught someone else's abandoned line that had a trout already on it. looked like it had been on there for a day or two. was going to let it go because I didn't really catch it myself but it was so hooked that I couldn't get it out without injury. some good time trying to recover it and it wouldn't stay upright so it came home.
I really enjoy the lake but it continues to only bring me tiny fish beaten to hell because everyone else has caught them too. if I was a big fish I don't see why I'd ever take a lure when there is an ample supply of tiny trout.
