I fished Brownlee last weekend (9/18-9/20) for three days, stayed within a couple miles of the Powder R. arm the whole time. Fishing was OK, 10-15 smallies a day, but nothing over 2 lbs the whole time, mostly 8-10" fish. Quality and number of fish have been declining significantly over the past few years, used to get into lots of 2-3 lb fish, always caught crappie and cats by accident, too, but not one this year. Anyone else noticing this?
I go the same weekend every year (opening weekend of chukkar), so I think there's just fewer big fish, or they've moved elsewhere in the reservoir.
