East Canyon?

[wiperhunter2]

Well, I know there may be 1 or 2 of you out there sitting on the edge of your chair just waiting for this East Canyon report... We did go...just 2 boats launching early when we got there, and water was pretty rough..the East Arm was protected early, so that's where we headed...Just before clipping my line to D.R. ball, I had a hit while still holding the line, but no hook up...I was optimistic...finally about a half hour later my buddy gets a hit on his D.R. at 28', and I netted a nice 16"er for him...and about 0800 close to the same area I finally got hit, 29', pink/silver flash squid..,and he nets a good 16"er for me...then slow...way slow..so we headed toward the dam..my buddy picked up 1 more, little smaller 'bow, just approaching the face of the dam off his planer set, about 17' down...we were here when the "Best Bite" was supposed to be happening, but it never happened...3 real bites is what we had, 3 rainbows netted....No skunk, but certainly not a "Best Fishing Times" morning for us...However...boat worked great, motors good, wind settled down, only a few "water lice" (I liked that from BDuck) churning up the surface...so it was a good A.M. on the water...and with catch rates down at some of our reservoirs, maybe lower expectations are in order...or maybe just a lot cooler weather...time to clean the dekes and bike the dikes...

Glad you were able to get out there Joe and the water lice wern't too bad, bummer no kokes were caught but good to see you got a few bows.
