Awesome day on dusty! The fishing really took off today for us. We got on the lake around 8 this morning and got off around 1pm. The fish never stopped biting. We fished the rocks on the east side of the lake from the shore as well as the south side rocks. We threw a red ice cream cone tandem rigs 7-10 yards off shore hanging 10 ft down under a strike indicator and the fish would not stay off. Picked up 20+ rainbows and one tiger trout (mean looking fish). One of the rainbows measured 22" and was probably 3" wide at the shoulder, he had a rusty barbed octopus hook through his lip when we got him in, please follow the rules people, single barbless only.. All the others were 14-18 inches. All in all, couldn't have asked for a better day, then topped off by a raspberry milkshake at u-tote-em it was just about perfect.

Selective gear rules apply. Single, barbless hooks. No scents. No baits.
