I finally talked the wife into going fishing with me on my day off. We got her licence and headed to Knuppenburg, just west of the summit of white pass. I fished from a kayak, she fished from the bank. They had recently stocked it with Brown Trout according to WDFW. I tried spinners and bait and nothing worked!

So, on a whim, I said "lets go to Dog Lake." It was right on the way home. I'm glad I did. We both limited out rather fast on 10-13 inch Rainbow Trout. The wife had a blast!! And, I was glad to see her having a fun fishing trip. Tired of eating trout that I have been retaining due to swallowed hooks, I found an outlet for these fish, and I'm giving back too! The Union Gospel Mission gladly takes fish caught by anglers to feed the homeless. I am pretty stoked about this because I can help someone in need, and still partake in my favorite hobby!

Power Eggs of any color on the bottom, with plenty of weight and a foot of leader worked perfect.
