It was so good, in fact, that I went back the next weekend. We barely scratched out limits over the course of two days, and we fished very hard. Even the Lakers weren't particularly cooperative.
Weird year of fishing. Last year we were killing it on Jordanelle and Strawberry. This year, it is tough fishing. I wonder if it's all the extra pressure... The fish don't have all week to forget those rigs mean danger, because the COVID crew is up there fishing them all week.
I'm sure you are right, so many more people out there this year during the week, that has to have something to do with it. Not sure about the Gorge stocking numbers but I know the stocking numbers at the Berry are down and with the numbers of people that slammed the kokes last year at the Nelle, I'm sure their overall numbers are down. It will be interesting to see how these other lakes turn out where they are stocking kokes now, if they start turning on in a year or two, everything might turn out OK, with the pressure reduced on the Nelle and the Berry, time will tell I guess.
