Fair fishing day at Strawberry

Or better said, four hours of Nothing and 10 fish in one hour.

We threw everything but the kitchen sink trolling the Berry this morning… downriggers, minnows, Jakes, Rapalas, spinners, pot gear, Lite and heavy lines… the works.

We had nothing for two hours early.

Once we found an area they were biting though, they hit just about everything in the water.

About the only common set-up we use that got skunked was the tried and true Gold spotted Jakes (normally our hottest commodity up there).

Of the 10, 7 were 15 inches or larger. Three were a shade over 18" including the two Rainbows we brought home. The rest are still swimming around up there.

We ended with a 6-4 Cutthroat to Rainbow ratio… More rainbows per Cutt than we’ve caught in a while.

Next trip for me is a week at Lake Powell starting a week from tomorrow!

Can’t wait to go bag some stripers!

That great you saved the day in that one hour, nice going.
I got up there at 6:30am and didn’t catch anything until 9:30 because I found the “spot”. I just watched where everyone else was and headed over there, Ha ha. but never reached them, caught all mine on the way over to them. Maybe they should have come bye me . I brought two nice Bows home again. got 4 Bows and 6 Cutts, lost a few too.Caught all but two of them on a red beaded wedding ring with silver spoon and two on a pink Squid. About 4-5 colors down worked the best.

Sounds like we were in the same boat, Ha ha.
Last week I think I got two Bows and 4 cutts.
