I took my wife and another couple out today who were new to LM. I had my doubts but today was as hot as I have seen it. We never got all the rods in and went 20 for 35 and were pulling lines at 8:15am. One of the more memorable days on the lake in pure chaos. Lost some tackle, broke a rod - but its all good.

Ended with 15 ho's and 5 Steelhead. What a day! Best baits were slim blue dolphin sliders (riggers down 45-60 early, then longer coppers started like crazy with uv green gator, mag lemon ice, and happy meal. Ran one diver with a red dodger and green fly and it took a few fish too out 80. We were in the 11's to 13's and 45's to 47's. Best speed was upper 2's but never even got the chance to try to dial it in.

Boatless!
