Beautiful lake. I was up there a month ago and was just opposite. 30 plus fish in the boat. We found one brown got to boat and with one big head shake, poof gone 😢.

@@blindsquirrelchannel3853. The water temp was much lower 63-66. The presentation of the day was metal head trolling fly- pink was hot! Chewed all the material off and it still kept working. Found the cuts out in middle of lake deep. Bows were all top to 25. Speed 2.2-2.8 Jon boat side planner put some nice fish on. The regular spoons, small rapala did ok. Fish hunt shoot flies and gear primarily.

@@phatdogfishing7545 Hey PhatDog, I just learned from the fishing counter at Mountain Ace Hardware in Truckee, that if you are catching small Kok's to move! Apparently there are bigger ones in there but if you are catching smalls you are only gonna catch smalls so make a move. That's what I heard at least, good luck!
