They won’t get a whiff of spring up on Lake of the Woods for another month. Must be nice being able to fish soft water already

Decided to fish more this year as well, forcing myself to do so by buying a boat and having to justify the move to the wife! With this mild winter we’ve been out hammering the Kokanee!

Bull trout bite starting to pick up as well

Yeah they’ve been footballs this year so far…bellies but longest to date was only 13”. The bull trout have been pushing 10# though, makes for a fight on Kokanee gear lol

Weather is crazy nice again today… high 70s. Was snowing last year on Patty’s day! Doggo thinks he’s the Capt’n

Yup you are correct sir! There's about 10-12 lakes here we fish on a pretty regular basis but Billy has really been producing well all winter. If we could just get the size up a touch....a bit more Wallowa-ish

Back in the mid 70s, when school was out we would head over there. Spend the morning fishing the Metolius or Descuttes arms and then ski back to the camp ground. After brunch we would take off and ski the entire shoreline, pull our mud bug traps and then have dinner. Love that place.
