Melissa and I put the top up and fished in the rain Saturday. We limited out in 2 hrs trolling her homemade wedding rings tipped with earthworms behind dodgers. Trolled 1.3-1.4 mph. 80 to 100 ft back with 1/2 Oz sinker. 1 fish in the 14 in range, the rest were 12's. Stayed dry under cover and had a blast watching them strike shallow and leap out of the water. Filled up the smoker!

Still haven't seen or heard of any state derby trout being caught. Anyone?

I talked about the derby fish to people at several lakes in the past 2 or 3 months. Most didn't know about it. Guess they don't check WDFW's website? Even the few that knew about it hadn't heard of anyone catching one. Considering there are probably about 4 tagged fish in each lake, it might be a while. Lol
