Caught Lots of rainbow 10-12 inch. Used just worms from shore. Was not many people, but that changed as summer goes on.

very hard road to get to the lake. Once there found a huge amont of public fisherman mostly using worms or power bait. I had no luck all day and many of the others only caught a few rainbows under 8 inches. All kept them which I thought was illegal.

To you who came and lost sight for the reason in being there makes me sake my head. The fishing is fun and meant to catch and release, not mount the big one and who wants people like you there any ways,it is seclusive, and a place to decompress, see nature as it is, undisturbed, my advise get out and don't came back.

caught a lot of medium sized brookies and some rainbows on caddis flies... the lake is beautiful and really would be worth the long drive, but was ruined by the obnoxious roar of ATV engines and blaring radios. definitely won't be returning on a weekend.
