[font "Arial Black"][red][size 3] Well looks like I'm on a roll this weekend. Went to Echo with my brother-in-law this morning very early. Launched at 7:00am and headed directly to the Dam. Trolled with downriggers( this was my downrigger 101 class) depth was 30-90 ft, water temp was a cool 60 at first I don't remember what it was when we left. [/size][/red][/font]
[font "Arial Black"][#ff0000][size 3] It seemed that anything that was Brown Trout color woked very nicely. I was using a J-13 Rapala in Brown Trout color and a Krocodile in the same color. Landed 3 very nice Rainbows weighing in at 2-21/2 lbs and full of fight. Water was like glass and no one on the water for about an hour or so. I got one hit that slammed my rod on the top of the motor , but was gone by the time that I picked it up. ( RATS) Left the water with a anyway about 11:00am . Great day [/size][/#ff0000][/font]
[font "Arial Black"][#ff0000][size 3] By the way be careful going up Weber Canyon, as they have an Army of Orange cones for a ways . Not bad after Morgan .[/size][/#ff0000][/font]

Dan, you have an interesting definition of "very early" (LOL).

Dan,
Glad it was a god trip. How bad was the boat traffic when you left? What depths were you having the most success?

[font "Arial Black"][red][size 3] The boat traffic wasn't bad at all. There were only 3 other fishing boats in that area. Oh, except for a Pain in the Ass Waterskier and Boatdriver. We weren't going to let a little stupidity ruin our day.[/size][/red][/font]
[font "Arial Black"][#ff0000][size 3] The average catching was at 30-35 ft. Fish were marked at the surface to about 50 ft. Mostly at 30-35ft.[/size][/#ff0000][/font]
