We fished Caliche, and then also Burke lake. Not a single bite. The people we talked with at Calichee lake didn't get anything either (there was only us and two other sets of people on that lake, didn't see either group catch anything). Fished Burke for maybe 45 minutes, there were tons of people there, only saw one person catch a fish. Drove around Quincy lake, couldn't find a place to fish there (also lots of people), and saw a few stringers in the water but didn't see anyone catch anything in the 30 minutes that we drove around the lake. Don't think I'll be going back to any of those lakes this year personally. I'm guessing they are mostly fished out already, although that’s just an assumption. Also have heard from several people that nearby Marth lake has already been fished out, so we didn’t even try that one.

Pretty sure you're right about fishing them out. On my way back from a perch slaughter, I stopped at Calliche to see what was going on last week, and there were at least 30 vehicles there, and people yanking Alpo trout out of the water in quick succession. It was funny to see the tackle that some were using, including what looked like a light sturgeon outfit. When the guy cast, the tsunami looked like it was going to wash out the people on shore!

Oops. Twice was not for emphasis.
