So they may not be there yet... Part of my reason to try this week is to catch some calmer weather, I've been pretty blown and tossed the last few years so I'm looking forward to being able to get on the water for a change... Rode down past the marina yesterday and I don't know when I've seen the water so glassy and flat, it was dead calm... not even a fish jumping... Only ripple was a golden eye duck swimming around... Bear Lake report looks like 5 mph max winds... So that's a little better than the 15 to 20 the last few years... Just hope the prediction is close to accurate... Anyway I plan on trying at least one rod with the whirly fligs and hanger shot, they sure seem like they should be a better way to keep that bait in the strike zone... In the past I think I'm either reeling too fast and above the fish or snagged up in the rocks, but when I get it just right, I catch some fish... Let you know what I find... Later JGood luck if you get out. I was looking at Thursday or Friday this week too...with the calm forecast. But unfortunately I have some commitments that will keep me home until next week. So far the forecast for next week looks more typical...with "breezes" likely. And I fish for enjoyment...not endurance.
