Headed out to Howard and arrived about 1pm. Fished until 5pm and God blessed with 10 fish including the 21" holdover which the photo shows. Lost about another 8 fish as fish seemed to be biting rather lightly. Was trolling Elgin Fishing God's Tooth spoons and the most effective patterns were pink top, perch and 50/50 blue. The big fish hammered the 50/50 blue set at fast action. All fish safely released to fight another day. Wishing all tight lines!

Going to Howard must have been a good drive.... isn't a forest service road all the way in?

Hi cobrar543,
I think you will love the spoons as much as I do. I have the full set of 12 patterns and basically use a swivel on the main line, attach 4 ft of leader then attach a small snap. I snap the split ring of the lure on and ready to go. I usually follow a protocol as to which spoons I start with and will give each pattern 5 minutes for action. If no action I unsnap it and snap the next pattern on and continue as necessary until I find what they want. Works outstanding.

Hi tyee4me,
No, Howard lake is west of Lake Goodwin and there us a residential road right by the boat launch. Hope this helps.
