Yankee @ the Oak 5/24 Afternoon

[Yankee Troller]

Took the GF out to catch her a fish. Fished the front door to the flats. Zig zagged between 60' and 110'. Managed one Lake Trout in an hour and a half. Only put 3 rods down on the riggers. DW Sea Sick, Stinger NBK, and Hammerhead Cowbells on the last. Guess what the LT took? 

 

Marked a few fish, and very little bait. This was my first outing at the Oak, so it's very possible I was not fishing the best area.

Let me get this right Yankee goes out in the lake and only runs 3 rods??? I don't buy it.... you sure you never through the 4th one in? I'm sure you were in the right spot you just weren't paying attention to the 1st 3 down rods to see if they were taking shots!

Not mention you lied too! You said you fished the front door to the flats but when I had the binoculars on ya you were fishing the back door to the humps????? What's up with that?

Rick,

 

We fished the same area Sunday but a little deeper. 100-130. Managed two small salmon, one nice steelhead and three lakers in a few hours. We did not mark any bait and very few fish either. They should start showing up soon. I hope anyway.

 

see you at the dock this weekend.

Real classy JakeyBaby! 

 

See ya at the dock this weekend Ken. It feels good to be at home port. Let's hope for a great Summer.

A peeping-Tom with binoculars......Yankee with the gf at the back door while fishing around the humps?? I thought this was a family-friendly site!

It's been tough out of the oak for silvers of any decent size but the lake trout are willing to play. I caught one Saturday over 250ft on a 2 color leadcore that was the last thing I thought that rod would pull in
