Chickened out on Dworshak due to low water.
We camped on Priest lake for three days and three days on Lake Pend Oreille. The fishing on each was slow..probably due to warm water. I would estimate 70 degrees on each. I caught trout in the priest lake tribs and bass on Pend Oreille. I tried trolling 30-40 feet deep in each lake for trout or macs but no luck. Someone on priest told me he was fishing 160 feet deep. Seems like it would be pitch black at that depth. I need to get a fish finder.
The water was very nice and clear for swimming. We got three inches rain on Friday at Pend Oreille. It rained for 20 hours straight. The drought is officially over.
