| Grant Lake Trip
Got Back Saturday (sorry for the late post- had to work). Lake was low, but rising about 3-4" per day. Weather was pretty cold only 2 days of short sleeved shirts. Got rained on, sleeted on, snowed on - burrrr some of the low temps were in the teens at night.
As to the fishing: The rainbows and Kamloops were pretty good - all holdovers. The big browns were not hungry yet, but the small ones (1-3lbs) were around in the shallows. The lake had not been stocked yet, as there was a 8' snow bank on the road leading to the launch ramp. We had to launch our boats down by the dam, and beach them below the campground, as the docks were still under snow. Doug who owns the concession finally got the road to the launch ramp cut by Thursday afternoon. We still had a good time except on monday when the wind and rain pretty much kept us off the water all day. JP fish for the trip was a 5+ rainbow. Big brown was a 3+lb which ate a Yozuri jerk bait (shiner pattern) trolled on 8lb mono.
enjoy the pics:
