My kids really wanted to post some of our pictures this year, we have been reading about the Silver fishing at Loon Lake for the last 2 years and this trip we found them. We spent 10 days at the lake in early June and really had good fishing the entire time. Weather was kindy cloudy/rainy/cool but fishing was really good. The last 2 summers we stayed at Loon lake in August and the fishing was not nearly as good as this year in June. Caught fish every night we went out, attached is a photo of one night of fishing with my son, we brought home 15 and the other is a big Rainbow and Tiger we caught before it got dark one evening, real nice fish. I also caught another Rainbow a little bigger than the one in the photo. We would go out just before dark, sometimes just my son and I and other nights with my son and one of my daughters, and after the first 2 nights we found Silvers. By the end of the trip we we releasing more fish than we kept, only keeping the bigger ones, 14-16". We found the best fishing in about 35 feet of water, we used corn only and glow hooks. We also used a light in the water. I only saw a couple of other people out fishing at night this trip, which is not nearly like it has been in August the last 2 summers. Anyway, great time fishing and the kids had a lot of fun catching so many fish. Even my wife caught some fish this trip. We are going back up for another week in mid July, can't wait.

Great report! I've been waiting for Loon silvers to get going, looks like I shouldn't have waited so long. What was your best depth?

We had all are luck in 32-35' range, we would reel up a few times after hitting bottom at those depths. Good luck.

I'll be back in Spokane in a few days, and plan on spending 5 straight evenings going after those jokers! Glad to hear that the bite has started!
