Fished Strawberry today with a couple of the grandkids and the fishing was fantastic! I can't imagine how good it would have been had it not been a full moon. Caught them on minnows still fishing. Caught them on Carter Spoons, Rapalas, Flatfish, Jakes Spin a Lures, and a minnow trolling. We once had a fish on all three rods while trolling (downrigger, leaded line, and long lining). Saw MGB, Hellsangler, Aquaman, Lundman and Extex. Got checked by the game wardens. Saw a guy get a ticket who only kept one fish, but it was a 17 inch cutthroat, and he had no idea about a slot limit. It was one of those days that it didn't matter what we trolled they hit it. The fish are larger this year than they have been for several years.
