The Oak 4-27 and 4-28

[John Kelley]

I picked up my new friend Paul Lange at the Captain's Cove docks at 5:00 a.m., and we motored out to the lake.  I suppose we were setup by 5:45 or 6:00 a.m.  Went straight out to 55 fow and set out two 10 color leadcore lines off the boards with spoons, two dipseys and sd fly combos, and two downriggers with spoons.  We didn't have to wait long before one of the dipseys fired on a laker.  We caught sporadically through the morning and ended up by noon with 5 fat lakers and two kings.  Paul had to pick his friend up at the Rochester airport in the afternoon, to fish with Captain Carl Bish the next day.  I went back out that evening to try for browns in the skinny water, but only played with another lake trout.  The next morning I started out trying for browns in the 10' water west of the breakwall, and popped a nice 14 pound 4 ounce fatty right off the bat, and boated and released about a 5 pounder soon after.  The rest of the morning was very slow for me, except for a small coho that came off the boards in 35' of water.
