Fished Baker both Saturday and Sunday this weekend with good results. Some were struggling, but we managed to put a few in the box! Fished predominantly at 35 feet with a few fish above and below that. 50/50 dodger with a pink smile blade setup tipped with a cured prawn chunk continued to be the winner for us. We fished hard through the morning landing our first 2 fish by 5:00am. We then lost 1 and landed 2 more ending out day with 4 in the box. The weather was cloudy and kinda crappy. Ran in to Natetreat and his pops out in their Kyak, nice to meet those guys. Great day overall, and a fun night of partying hard afterwards ;0)

Quad, the boats, nearly as dense, boat per acre, as Lake WA sockeye, 6ish years ago........ on a thurs and fri. I suspect there were a few more for the weekend at Baker.

I assume there were a solid 300 boats out both days. I counted the boats nearest to us and got an easy 50. We stayed well north and out of the fleet, at most there were 10 boats fishing near us at any given time. Waking up at 4:30am and looking out of our tent we could see Swift Creek and it looked like a little city with all of the running lights out there. Tried to capture a picture but it didn't turn out. It's a big lake, there is plenty of room for everyone. Never got tangled or had any uncomfortable run ins. Nothing like fishing Pinks in Humpy Hollow!
