Sunday we tried East Canyon, with no success. 3rd skunk in a row, haven't had a skunk in decades, then 3 in a row, very humbling. But attempted fishing is still good for the soul.
The water temp was 45 degrees, and that might of been the problem, or just not on a bite. Saw no boats with fish on, saw one shore guy land a small one. The normal stuff didn't work. Had one bump, and one hook up lost. Count - 0
Last year was unbelievable, had to put the fishing rods away in order to eat lunch.
There was about 25 boat trailers in the parking.
Just to keep me on my toes, the motor would not shift into forward or reverse. Trolled on the electric, which was good, prefer the big motor to push and the electric to steer. Headed to repair shop, sooo lucky.
The up side, I found a problem before the season, better to get it fixed.
