Fished just north and south of seven bays marina trolling within 100 yards of the shore from 9:30 to 3. Bites were steady but not frequent like the other 2 times I have been here. Not as many larger fish. Probably hooked about a dozen or so. 5 were 18 plus, none were over 10 inches. 2 of the large ones got off, possibly because I was using a barbless fly (gonna tie up some on barbed tiemcos or gamakatsus next time). Seemed like circling around and repeatedly going over spots where I got bit was the ticket. Directional changes didn't seem to matter.
Unlike before, there was no interest in trolled crankbaits on mono line. Got a few taps early on, then nothing for the rest of the day kept switching but nothing seemed to work: small floating raps, shad raps, tail dancers, husky jerks.
Everything was caught on 3-4 colors of leadcore, 60 feet 4 lb mono with a dark olive wooly bugger. Water temp was about 36, trolling speed was 2-2.5. There was some small debris in the water, but clarity seemed good.
