Went out last night from 6:30 to 8 in front of pump house and caught 2 lakers. Fish were in. 65 fow 55 down. Finally some life. Used smaller spoons and green in color like a frogger. Thanks for previous reports. Good luck.

Thanks for the report. Let's hope things pick up...the rainbow action seems to  be south.  I haven' t totally given up on things and had some pretty good marks on the finder last time so everyhting didn't go in that die off anyway.   Keep at it and good luck! Les

Thanks les. I tried running smaller spoons and ran the boat at 2.4. Still caught only laker so there might be a good current down there. I would think at 2.4 to 2.6 the bows would be hitting

I know this sounds kinda weird but don't be afraid to crank up the speed for brief periods to 3 or more. When my buddy and I were out a couple weeks ago in his boat I think the lowest we went was about 2.8 and we were connecting. I even had one bang the wire rig with a dipsey and flasher on it (never run that kind of stuff that fast on my boat on the Fingers ..so I was surprised but it does work). Les The rainbows also seemed to like speed at turns too. The rainbow action seemed to be south of German Brothers the last couple times out too.
