Notes

A very slow day. Karl, Eric, and Bryce trolled around in the canoe and I rowed my butt off in the pontoon boat. Eric caught 1 22" rainbow, and Karl had a nice one on, but that was all of the action. I only caught the 8" rainbow - I never had another strike or anything. I tried bobber fishing in the afternoon with a couple chironocones at different depths but of course had no luck. No luck with streamers, wet flies, or nymphs. Very slow.
