Decided to do a quick turn yesterday at Flaming Gorge weather was supposed to be good until 2pm. Launched at Lucerne and talked to the maintenance personnel and they said they are just about ready to start dropping the docks in. Un known when it will be complete. Macs are still not too productive did see a few 20lbs being brought in. Seem to mark more in anvil or in sheep creek then in Lucerne area.

That's too bad about the macs, even on a good day I have a hard time catching them.

A slow day fishing still beats the heck out of working. Unless you think fishing is work. What a great job to have...

One of these days with your wisdom you will have to show me how to catch those Macs without trying. I have heard that you are a master at catching them, it only takes you a few minutes and you are usually hooked up with a decent fish. I agree fishing is better then work, but some times it takes more work to go fishing then to be at work.

I was there monday and tuesday, marked lots of lakers but the big ones didn't want the jig. They'd come look and just disappear. Switched gears and found the mother load of Cutts and Bows. Good to be the only boat on the lake and wind actually held over ok.

Sounds like most reports. I have been hearing that they are hot in sheep creek area. I have never really done good over there. I out a new camera on the line and might have figured out a problem with the speed and trolling. Hoping that the bite picks up, we seem to be slow this year. Thanks for the reports.
