Very slow fishing, tried to get some browns but nothing, I managed to get a decent 15" rainbow after two hours of fishing. Other people on the dock and to the left of the dock weren't sucsessful.
We got a lot of bites on wedding rings while trolling. Brought three to the boat but they were all small rainbows. We tried some flies but didn't have any luck with them that night.
Much slower than last Sunday; I caught one planter and the wife one small rainbow as well. No one appeared to be doing much better on the bank; other than a guy who caught four and kept one. He was th...

I was told West Medical hasn't been good for fishing for years and so I decided to try my luck today from the shore because they charge you to use their dock. Anyways, my fishing buddy refuses to go t...
