Wanted to provide some input and feedback after a rec my trip to baker lake on the 11-12 of July. The wife and I drug our boat up from the California Central Valley. The bite was not wide open but it was steady. Averaged a fish an hour with some doubles tossed in.
The area which provided the best fishing was on the east end of the northern part of the lake. A large "slide" coming off the hillside provided a visual landmark for our north and south trolls at about 200 yards off shore in 140' of water. 29' OTW in the early morning was a great depth as they day grew longer we lowered to 44' and got a few more. Pink shrimp soaked in fire brine did the trick. Double hook set ups with beads and a seed smile blade far out performe the hootchies. Good luck to those who give it a go, the fishery is beautiful and the folks were friendly.
Tight lines!
