Hit Jordanelle yesterday with the float tube from 10:30a to 3:00p... hazy skies and LOTS OF WIND! Water temp was 47 degrees and clear.
I opted for the Hailstone access (half-price, off-season) and fished east of the main boat ramp and out on the wave-swept shorelines. Landed a handful of Rainbows up to 18-inches stripping leeches (Black Mamba) on an intermediate line. Believe I saw the DNR hatchery truck on the boat ramp as I was kicking around the corner so assume that a fresh supply of slime rockets arrived yesterday.
No Browns, no Splake which was disappointing. Maybe I need to try other areas for them.
Can't add pictures so... you'll have to take my word for it.
