Today I hammered away in the Trench to find a few biters...We had a really strong wind last night with a huge Pressure change which I believe is the Culprit for the Laketrout not being in the feeding mood...I kept my Strip Baits and Ace Hi-Fly down next to the bottom and managed to snake out a Nice Chinook at 208ft. deep..Didn't have a lot of missed bites today, we caught almost everything that bit..We ended the day with 6 laketrout and 1 Chinook so it was a decent day at the end but boy I had to work for every bite that we got.. I guess that is why they Call It Fishing and Not Catching...
Thanks so much to Gary Bellows, Troy Bellows, and Terry Waldon for fishing with me today!!!!Tight Lines to all and Be safe at the Launches...

Hey Joe, it is Great to see some Chinook showing up on your lines. That sure is a nice fish. I was just getting started fishing when I saw you leaving, but I was after a limit of Kokes, so I guess it was good I didn't try the Macks. Thanks for the pics, and you be right about launching. Man, not much room at the launch right now. Keep up the great work, and wishing you the best.
