Today only gets a 2 but the trip was a 5.
This lake is still C&R only and single barbless hooks.
The morning started around 5am for some lake trout. Using many different spoons,Johnson Silver Minnows,Dick Nite..etc.
We took a pair of pliers and filed down the barb. Began marking fish between 30ft-120ft. No takers today.
The weather was a little rainy at times with a few lighting strikes on Storm King mountain.
It was great to be back on my old stomping grounds.

Spoke with a Park Ranger for a little 'bit. He too had heard the rumors of walleyes in here. Trust me folks,I'm not telling you they are there but this rumor has been around since I was a kid but no one ever has pics of them.

I have also heard that there are smallmouth bass in the lake. Can anyone confirm this?

You are fishing on the trails of my youth... another beautiful lake and countryside. How about the awesome clarity in this lake, and its amazing depth.

Sorry Bob,I have no idea but I've heard this to. I wish I could fish here more often,I'd do some investigating.

Great clarity,I didn't put in the report but I took a swim at mid-day. I'm use to cold water but never had the pleasure of a thousand knives piercing my body.
I lived in Port Angeles for 7 years and fell in love with this region. The Stait and Olympics right there

Man we passed you kevinb on the way back from Neah Bay on the road around Lk. Crescent. We came back 08/17 at around 7PM and the lake on the northern most edge was really whipped up with good waves. When we left Neah Bay it was 55F and really blustery and at Lk. Crescent is was 74F and still breezy. Good report. I have heard of some huge fish in there!! KTK
