I'm housesitting a place right on the lake off of East Lake Samish Road. I went east along the shore, trying to stay in 15 - 25 feet of water trolling a white spinnerbait and a White and Blue Rattle Trap. Got nothin' except a little perch. I'm using a canoe, and I have a crappy little portable fish finder for finding depth. Anyone who can help me out with locations, presentations, colours, techniques, etc, that work on Lake Samish for largies or smallies I'd appreciate it. How does a guy find the fabled "rocky humps" upon which all the lunkers are supposedly holding? I've seen a few big boulders jutting out of the depths, and plenty of tree trunks too, but no rocky humps. I saw a couple nice looking bass, but like I said hooked nothing. Any tips would be appreciated.

Throw spinners aroung the bridge by the state park, we've pulled a 6lb smallie from that area. Also down by Lutherwood day camp is not a bad spot for using jigs and spinners. There is a mobile home park on the opposite end of the lake of the bridge and Lutherwood. The park has a big moorage dock, to the left of that (if you are coming into it from the lake) is a house that's built on a point. That point holds a ton of fish. There is a giant submerged tree laying next to the house throw at that and you should hook something. The fish are scattered all over that lake, used to fish Samish alot, evening bite isn't bad.
