Fished Drano Lake from the bank on Sunday. Started out plunking in the columbia and hooked a Sturgeon on a roe bag/plunking set up. After a nice fight I C&R'd the little monster. Figured it was time to change tactics so I went over to the lake side and started throwing plugs. Ten minutes into that this 12 lb crome hen slammed my Wiggle Wart and proceeded to make a few spirited runs before I brought her to bank. I am giving it a 3 because it was tough fishing, except it seemed like the plunkers were doing the best with sand Shrimp out in the columbia, even perhaps better than the boats trolling the lake. OK its BBQ time!

Sturgeon was about 40", seemed like about 25#, but I never took it out of the water.
