SEND US YOUR PICS: Thank you for sending pics of your success here. Sometimes they end up in junk file and we lose them, sometimes they are in a format that is not supported by website backend. If you don’t get a thank you acknowledgement email that means we didn’t get it. Try again THANKS!!
TROUT:GOOD: Last day of boating is today but the last day of fishing is never here. And the last day of catching does not exist. Plenty of shore action to be had. Bait, flies, lures from shore all do well. Look to North Shore as a good bet as well as spots on the southside of the lake like Rocking Chair and Witchers Cove. November sees big spawning Brown Trout move up river. Cutthroats and Cuttbows spawn in the Fall and tend to be in coves around the lake.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: No good reports beyond fish moving up river. Lots of red in the the river to be sure. Some fun to be had.

NORTHERN PIKE: GOOD: Lots of great fish still being caught. Now is the time. Bites vary through out the day but late morning through most of the day have seen moments of greatness. You might even get an early morning one. We like North Shore, Howbert, Witchers Cove and East Bay. Sticks, spoons, streamer flies and time usually pay off from shore too! As the water cools the shallows see more bigger fish. You can catch big ones in 3 feet of water in windy conditions.

SPECIAL NOTE: 11 Mile Marina is located at the North Shore in Eleven Mile State Park, Lake George Colorado. A CPW Park Pass is required on all vehicles entering the Park.  Any fees for Guide/Outfitter/Rental services do not include Park fees, CO fishing license or gratuities.

The WEEKLY FISHING REPORT is produced by fishermen for fishermen. We try to get it done every Thursday but some times fishing or life gets in the way. So if its not there on Thursday morning it will show up by Friday. We appreciate all the support and acknowledge that many of you won't miss a week but every now and then we might.

CURRENT CONDITIONS: Beautiful Fall weather is back after last weekends brief interruption. It wasn’t all that bad with Saturday seeing much needed moisture but it really was minimal.

THE PARK IN OFF SEASON AND WINTER: Eleven Mile is a wonderful place to visit in the Fall and Winter. The Summer crowds become a memory and serenity sets in. The scenery and wildlife are most enjoyable and the fishing and catching are great. This October is starting off with spectacular weather and some pretty darn good catches.

Ice normally tends to arrive in coves and on the West end first. We generally don’t see much until mid to late November. It is rare to ice fish on Thanksgiving but it has happened. Look to early December if we are lucky. Last year saw Eleven Mile with pretty good ice compared to most places. We are getting our ice fishing offerings on the store floor. Stop in for a pre ice fishing chat. We have our Ice Lazers and Tiny Tots on display now. Only available at the Marina since we make them ourselves.

TROUT:GOOD: The bite is has been a little sporadic. A fair number of anglers are catching big fish. Mostly Cuttbows ranging 16” to 27”. Shore fishing has been productive through out the day with sunrise, mid morning and late afternoon good bets. Bait or lures your call both have done well. Boaters on the troll have done well long lining Taz Devils in a variety of different patterns. Look to # 55 Pink Panther and Y82 Canberra Killer as producers but trying different colors always surprises. Rapala’s have also done well.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: No good reports beyond fish moving up river. Lots of red in the the river to be sure. Some fun to be had.

NORTHERN PIKE: VERY GOOD: Lots of great fish still being caught. Now is the time. Bites vary through out the day but late morning through most of the day have seen moments of greatness. You might even get an early morning one. No need to run West they are biting all over the lake. We like Howbert, Witchers Cove and East Bay. Sticks, spoons, streamer flies and tube jig have all produced. You might want to give the Rapala X-Rap a try in the Clown pattern size 8, 10 or 12. This is Eleven Mile Fall fantastic catching. One more trip?

WEBSITE WOAHS: Sorry but we have been off line a few days. Working on a new site but were not ready apparently and have had all kinds of tech issues. Looking forward to a new Square site that will have our entire inventory available online with an eye toward “curbside” pick up this Winter. Order you meal worms, Lazers and whatever and have them waiting for you so you can hit the ice. Not so sure all the glitches are fixed still working on things. Thanks for your support.

Weather forecasting colder temps but no real snow accumulation expected. We’ll see but colder weather and a little snow good for hunting and fishing.

TROUT:GOOD: The bite has been picking up from boat and shore. Lots of great fish being landed. Mostly Cuttbows ranging 15 to 24 inches. As Fall sets in the bite can be anytime. Early and mid mornings have been good. There has also been a pretty strong afternoon bite. Lots of baits are working but colors and patterns vary sometimes daily. Trollers see activity on green rainbow cowbells, lead core with Tas Devils, downriggers with Rapalas and Macks or Kastmaster presentations. Drifting bait for those so inclined has seen some big ones on nightcrawlers/mallows and power baits. Shore anglers doing equally as well with Sunrise and Sunset the best.

11 MILE MARINA WEEKLY FISHING REPORT 09.26.24

“ITS ABOUT THE CATCHING

OFF SEASON HOURS: SATURDAY 08.00 - 6:00PM SUNDAY 8:00AM -5:00PM MONDAY 8:00AM - 4:00PM FRIDAY 8:00 - 5:00PM CLOSED TUESDAY -WED- THURSDAY UNLESS WE ARE HERE.

CURRENT CONDITIONS: Fall foliage is in high gear and colors abound. Looks like peak weekend. Park Visitor Center showers, bathrooms and laundry closed for the season. Witchers Cove boat ramp is closed for the season. North Shore boat ramps open half hour before sunrise to half hour after sunset. Most campsites are open. All electric sites open. Morning temps in the 30’s daytime 70’s and up. Weekend weather report looks great.

WATER TEMP: 57

LAKE OPEN TO CATCHING: 24/7/365

WATER FLOW: CFS 104 IN 103 CFS OUT

BOAT RENTAL: still available reservations highly recommended.

WATER CLARITY: It’s a mixed bag. The West end is pretty bad. Lots of crud in the water. But it seems to be concentrated there with the rest of the lake seeing better conditions.

RENTAL BOAT FOR SALE: We have one used 2014 16’ Lund Adventure Series boat and 15HP Yamaha motor available to purchase. Does not include trailer $1499.00 obo. These 16’ Lunds are great fishing boats for this lake. Call 719-748-0317 for additional info or appointment

FALL/WINTER SEASONS: As Fall officially begins on Sunday the 22nd and the countdown begins for ice fishing, anticipation grows for the next phase of catching here at Eleven Mile. We love Fall. The colors, the mild days, crisp nights, no crowds and the catching. As the water temp drops the fish move into better eat now before it gets cold mode. People talk about the lake “turning over” and indeed there is time when the water towards the surface gets cold and the water below is still fairly warm. Then it inverts and organic crud from the bottom rises to the top. Prior to that the catching is typically very good. That generally is now until the middle of October. Conditions vary of course based on what Mother Nature decides to do. If a trophy fish is on your bucket list, now is the time to put in some casts.

Ice normally tends to arrive in coves and on the West end first. We generally don’t see much until mid November. It is rare to ice fish on Thanksgiving but it has happened. Look to early December if we are lucky. We are already getting our ice fishing offerings on the store floor. Stop in for a pre ice fishing chat. We have our Ice Lazers and Tiny Tots on display now. Only available at the Marina since we make them ourselves.

ELEVEN MILE STATE PARK IS IN THE SOUTH PARK NATIONAL HERITAGE AREA

WE ARE HERE FISHING EVERYDAY AND CAN PUT YOU ON THE FISH. Spinney Maps are officially unavailable and no longer in production. You can probably find them other places but we are out. Plenty of Eleven Mile in stock get yours with all the hot spots marked up today. Information is gold for catching

PIC # 1: It’s one thing to catch a 37” 16.59lbs Northern Pike its quite another to catch it out of a canoe. It takes a team. Big Rapala lots of patience and skill.

PIC # 2: Many happy anglers scoring Pike like this.

PIC # 3: Deer on Goose Island

SEND US YOUR PICS: Thank you for sending pics of your success here. Sometimes they end up in junk file and we lose them, sometimes they are in a format that is not supported by website backend. If you don’t get a thank you acknowledgement email that means we didn’t get it. Try again THANKS!!
TROUT:FAIR TO GOOD: Its still hit and miss. A bad bite day followed by a stellar day. Mostly Cuttbows ranging from 16” to 23”. Trolling is also hit and miss. The trick is changing up. One day something is hot and the next day it is not. Same with tube jigs. One day white is hot and the next it gets skunked. Changing up can’t be stressed enough. And when all else fails break out the nightcrawlers or Power Bait/Fire Bait. Afternoon has seen surprising good luck. Wind is better for the bite than calm.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: No news is bad news. Try if you like always worth a shot but much effort little benefit.

NORTHERN PIKE: VERY GOOD: Strong bite continues. Lots of medium size 28 to 31 inches. Bigger ones on the prowl and starting to attack. Big Sticks, and spoons doing well. Work 6 to 18 feet Rocky Flats, Stoll Mountain, Howbert Point and Witchers Cove. Many areas around the lake are seeing great Pike action and you don’t need a boat. Good numbers being caught from shore too. Lots of baits of different baits are working.

TROUT:FAIR TO GOOD: The full moon cycle messes with bite times. Many anglers experienced frustration as the bite was elusive a couple of days this week. Some anglers came in expressing frustration with the skunk paying them a visit for the first time this season. You have a tackle box for a reason. Although you may tend to use the same five lures frequently sometimes you need to work the box. When nothing was working the Mack’s Imperial spoon in red worked on a lead core hitting the jackpot with fish after fish. Night anglers doing well as temps fall. Shore anglers seeing success on Power Bait or nightcrawlers. Fall arrives with sporadic action from hot to cold. Trophy action is now.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: No news is bad news. Try if you like always worth a shot but much effort little benefit.

NORTHERN PIKE: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Strong bite continues. Lots of medium size 28 to 31 inches. Bigger ones on the prowl and starting to attack. Big Sticks, and spoons doing well. Work 6 to 18 feet Rocky Flats, Stoll Mountain, Howbert Point and Witchers Cove.

11 MILE SPORTS, INC. 30 YEAR ANNIVERSARY SEASON. It’s time to celebrate and bite some heads and suck some tails as they say in New Orleans. Eleven Mile crawfish are not your average “mud bugs” as they are sometimes referred to. To be sure they are bottom feeders and eat whatever, they live in some seriously high altitude clean water. Not to brag but we have some New Orleans roots and 40 years of crawfish boiling experience here at the lake. With celebration in mind come see us on Saturdays in August about Noon to 2:00PM for an Eleven Mile Boil!! with all the fixins. Free and open to all while they last, one plate per person.

FISHING HAS NO BOUNDARIES: In the 30 years here we helped start the FHNB Colorado Springs chapter by donating the use of two Pontoons for their new program of taking disabled kids fishing. 11 Mile Marina hosted the event which grew to over 40 boats and outgrew the Eleven Mile State Park infrastructure a few years ago. Their annual event is now held at Pueblo State Park in September. The FHNB crew will be here on August 31 hosting the last crawfish boil with BBQ as a fundraiser for a very great organization. Live music with our old and dear friend Oakley who played at many a Pike tournament events which were an annual fundraiser for FHNB. Festivities start at Noon. Come one come all!

TROUT: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Best August we have seen. Trolling has been hit and miss with a couple days of very disappointed anglers. Next day they are doing great. As the Trout pics show we are killing it on tube jigs. 20 feet of water to the shoreline. Not just sundown. Bites have been sporadic through out the day but every one of those hogs are pack filled with crawfish, some still moving about. Other methods still doing well and many folks are doing great with Power Bait. Stop in for the up to the minute hot ticket.

KOKANEE SALMON: FAIR TO VERY POOR: A few being caught here and there. Try the Macks Wiggle Hootchie tipped with a Gulp maggot or corn ( just in) on back of a Dodger or Pop Gear. 15 to 40 feet out from North Shore in 50 to 60 feet of water.

NORTHERN PIKE: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Good bite continues and getting better. Lots of medium size 28 to 31 inches. Bigger ones on the prowl and starting to attack. Big Sticks, and spoons doing well. Work 6 to 18 feet Rocky Flats, Stoll Mountain, Howbert Point and Witchers Cove.

CRAWFISH: VERY GOOD: Most if not all big fish are just packed with crayfish. This is prime time season. Set traps at night with appropriate bait see full trap in morning. We have some great Pro Mar crab traps that we use and work really well. They hold a large number of the critters maximizing your night. Come taste our version of the most delicious crawfish in Colorado. See you Saturday.

PIC # 1 Catching memories at Eleven Mile. Rented a boat scored a big memory!

PIC # 2: Marina staffer, Alex, hits big with the tube. 7.25lb

PIC # 3: August continues to kick out the big ones to those that put in the time.

PIC # 4: Just minutes before boats had to be off the lake Larry pitches a tube just outside the breakwater and scores. Thirty years and it just keeps getting better. Very Thankful.

PIC # 5: Saturday boil another big hit for those that like to suck the heads and bite the tails.

PIC # 6: Spectacular sunrise the other morning but check this one out sent by friends in Westcliffe. COLORFUL COLORADO. We are so appreciative to be able to live here.

TROUT: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Traditionally August can be a tough month. You know, the dog days of Summer. Weeds, poor water clarity, hot etc etc. This is looking to be one of the best Augusts we have ever seen. Lots of big fish being caught. Tube jigs seem to be the best attack but plenty of big ones on the troll, fly and bait. Times vary and the Full Moon effect was in play. Night fishing was hot with 10:45PM to 2:00AM being just great. Fish in pic # 2 was caught in dead stick calm and hot conditions in the afternoon. Go figure. As usual colors vary from day to day. We like to scent our tube jigs here. Illegal at Spinney. Stop in for latest info.

KOKANEE SALMON: FAIR TO POOR: A few being caught here and there. Try the Macks Wiggle Hootchie tipped with a Gulp maggot or corn ( just in) on back of a Dodger or Pop Gear. 15 to 40 feet out from North Shore in 50 to 60 feet of water.

NORTHERN PIKE: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Good bite continues and getting better. Lots of medium size 28 to 31 inches. Bigger ones on the prowl but elusive. Try Spinner baits big Sticks and tube jigs. Rapala Husky Jerks always a good bet. Bite times vary and surprise you when you least expect it.

CRAWFISH: VERY GOOD: Most if not all big fish are just packed with crayfish. This is prime time season. Set traps at night with appropriate bait see full trap in morning. We have some great Pro Mar crab traps that we use and work really well. They hold a large number of the critters maximizing your night. Come taste our version of the most delicious crawfish in Colorado. See you Saturday.

Eleven Mile crawfish are not your average “mud bugs” as they are sometimes referred to. To be sure they are bottom feeders and eat whatever, they live in some seriously high altitude clean water.

With celebration in mind come see us on Saturdays in August about Noon to 2:00PM for an Eleven Mile Boil!! with all the fixins. Free and open to all while they last.

PIC # 5: Crawfish boil Eleven Mile style every Saturday in August.

PIC # 6: The new garlic. Almost exclusively at 11 Mile Marina. Not sure where else you can find it. Let us know if you do.
TROUT: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Last week had to be one of the best of the Summer for many anglers. Shore or boat the fish were biting. Cuttbows, Cutthroats and Browns all making an appearance. Smiles were all over the lake. Bait, lure or fly it was like Springtime in July. Hard to say what was the most effective bait. From shore it would have to be Power Bait with garlic. We have the latest Power Bait garlic offerings. From boat lots of different baits were producing stop in to find out the latest hot bait. It changes almost daily sometimes.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: Most anglers striking out. Every now and then a four year old has been turning up. Same old same old here. Not saying you can’t catch one but not happening like we want.

NORTHERN PIKE: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: The bite was on for sure last week. Tubes, spoons, stick and who would have thunk it…Garlic Power Bait. April got hers on an undisclosed color of tube jig. Maybe she’ll tell you if you stop in and ask nicely. A variety of times with nothing specific. Can’t catch em if you don’t go.

PIC # 2: North Shore. pic courtesy A. Johnson
TROUT: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: Some boaters are dong great most aren’t. Water is still pretty cold. The pop gear crawler crowd are seeing decent catching. Shore angling is still hot. We have had lots of snow the last few weeks. The ground is wet and pumping out worms. They have been washed into the lake so Night crawlers are working really good. Power Bait also a big hit for shore anglers in Garlic, Salmon Peach and Lemon Twist. Tube jigs and flies still catching well in shallow water.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR

NORTHERN PIKE: POOR: As many hours as we have put in on shore we can report that none of us have caught one. It’s all about water temp and for them its still a little too cold we think.

CANOE FOR SALE: MAD RIVER ADVENTURE 16 Great Condition, three seats lots of nice features. Stern design for small trolling motors. It’s a $1,200 boat new. SALE NOW $495.00

MARINA STORE AND LAKE SPECIALISTS: Camping, Fishing Equipment, Flies, Lures, Bait, Clothing, Food, Snacks, Drinks, Ice Cream and official purveyors of Boars Head brand products. Stop in and find out how we can help you catch. Get a topo map. They say information is gold. It's also critical to catching fish on the ice.

WE ARE HERE FISHING EVERYDAY AND CAN PUT YOU ON THE FISH. We have a GREAT Ice Fishing selection of gear and baits.

TROPHY SEASON HOT BAITS: This is truly one of our favorite times of the year. Crappy weather, no crowds and lots of BIG fish. The thing about this time of year is almost all baits will work at some point in time. From sunup to sundown the bite varies. From flies to Power Bait and everything in between. If your aren’t catching you are switching up. For those that limit themselves to one method there will be down times. If you are a multi functional angler you should be prepared to do it all. No one bait is better than others when the fish decide, not the angler. Of course the fly folk would never use Power Bait and the Power Bait folk don’t think to highly of the fly folk anyway. But my Grandfather could and would fish with whatever the fish were biting on from Hendon Zara Spooks, streamer flies or nymphs to the good old night crawler. Lets not forget the mallow. So if you want big fish the big fish don’t care about your preference but getting a line in the lake is priority number one. Now we might be slightly prejudice but Eleven Mile is absolutely one of the best lakes in Colorado if not the Western United States. Not a joke lol and now is prime time.

Pautske products like their Salmon and Trout Eggs do really well. We have in stock the Pautske Spawn Sac Tyer which is a little contraption that makes it easy peasy to tie your own perfect spawn sacs. Just wing those out, fish off the bottom and batta bing batta boom…big fish! Come on in and we will show you how.

Lots of flies work great this time of year. Black is a popular color like a Wolly Bugger or Leach Pattern . But just like the rest the fish will change it up. At sundown you will see an incredible hatch of the tiniest bugs as it gets dark and the shoreline bubbles with fish. Trico’s work great if your eyes can tie them on. You don’t have to pitch a fly rod to use a fly but don’t tell those dream streamers that they will scoff at you. Fly and a three foot leader to water bubble works just fine and sometimes even better. We have Bungee Bubbles which are hard to find. Come on in and we will show you how.

Lots of hardware works, particularly when it gets windy. Although it never gets windy here as you all know. But when it does the Kastmaster shines. Other spoons like the Thomas Bouyant, Super Duper and Krocodile get hot. Come on in and we will show you the ones we are using.

Lots of jigs work particularly tubes and marabous. A technique is required that only comes with practice. The tubes come in a hundred different colors. We only stock the ones we catch fish on. Come on in and we will show you the jig de jour.

PIC # 1: This happy angler, one of the very few who came out this past snowy Saturday and scored with some great catching. He caught this one somewhere in the lake on a an undisclosed flavor of a popular floating bait. lol It was snowing.

PIC # 2: “My son Archer caught these master angler cut bows Sunday outside the marina after talking to you.  Caught both on a fly pattern he made up. Not even a sniff on bait.” Guess it pays to come in and talk to us for the latest before hitting the lake! Pic courtesy J. Butero

PIC # 3 Another happy Marina customer.

TROUT: VERY GOOD: Ice off action is in high gear. Lots of catching . This time of year lots of baits work. Flies, lures and bait all produce. Flies like Wooly Buggers, Nymphs, Leach and egg patterns all do well. Tube and marabou jigs along with Jointed Rapala are popular with the fish. And a worm or Power Bait is sure to connect. The bite has been through out the day. There are hot times with lulls but the fish are cruising the shallows.to be sure. Sundown always good. We should see this bite for another week or two depending on water temp.

KOKANEE SALMON: NO REPORT

NORTHERN PIKE: POOR: As many hours as we have put in on shore we can report that none of us have caught one. It’s all about water temp and for them its still a little too cold we think.

OCTOBER BOAT RENTAL: We will have some boats available but fewer and fewer as the month rolls on. Reservations can be made by calling us at 719-748-0317. Sat and Sundays available for at least the first two weekends. Weekdays depending on staff availability.

PIC # 1: Ira gets his biggest Pike ever at 18lbs. Pitched for three hours with one hit. Got this one on the last cast.

PIC # 2: A fair number of nice ones like these being landed.

TROUT: GOOD: Fall action just getting rolling. Lots of nice fish being caught, shore or boat. Many baits working well. Trollers scoring on Tas Devils, Needlefish, Mack’s Imperial, Arnie’s pop gear/crawler. Flies they like such as black Woolly Bugger, egg patterns and gold bead nymphs working well Shore anglers love the garlic. Scented products do work and not just bait. We like Pautzke Fire Gell especially on our tube jigs. But you can use it on most any lure or bait. It comes in a variety of scents ie Garlic, Crawfish, Anise, Trout and others. We won’t put it on a Marabou as it’s stickiness effects the bou lol. Scent products are illegal at Spinney but not Eleven Mile. Hmmm maybe they really do work to the anglers advantage. Gold Medal Waters are regulated to give the fish an advantage. Nothing wrong with that.

Stop in for the latest report.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: You might find some four year olds moving up to the river/ Snagging is no longer allowed at Eleven Mile.

NORTHERN PIKE: VERY GOOD: Action continues in sporadic but strong bites. Lots of anglers head West but there are many big fish all around the lake. West may be best for numbers East may be best for size. You won’t know unless you try. Spoons, sticks, spinner baits and jigs all seem to work at some point. The fish in pic was caught in the North Shore Marina area at sundown.

OFF SEASON: Labor Day marks the end of the busy Summer season here at the Park. Things slow down during the week but weekends remain very busy through October. The water will quickly clear as night time temps drop and Fall catching will bring lots of great memories. As Fall progresses we will have fewer boats in the water and fewer staff to service those we have, make reservations soon if you plan on coming out. Walk ups are sometimes impossible to do because we don’t have the staff on site so reservations highly advised.

TROUT: GOOD TO VERY GOOD: If you get on the right color pattern action is hot. Although your standard colors like pink and green are go to colors sometimes they don’t work so go through the tackle box. Lots of baits and methods working. In the Fall season you don’t need a boat to catch fish as shore action picks up. Kastmasters doing well in general. Stop in for the latest info.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR TO POORER:

NORTHERN PIKE: VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT: Pike action at Spinney and here continues to be strong. Timing is important and bite times vary. To be sure opportunities are there for really big fish. Lots of baits are working. When they are this aggressive a steel leader may be appropriate. Stop in for the latest update.

SORRY WE NO LONGER RENT CANOES, KAYAKS OR SUPS

CURRENT CONDITIONS: A few nighttime thunder storms keeping things green. Weed growth on the lake accelerating. Some pelicans are getting aggressive, following boats and swooping in to steal fish on your line. Our best guess is people are feeding the birds from their boats while cleaning fish on the lake. We have seen this happen as large crowds of pelicans and seagulls swarm around the boat of the offending party. Now they are associating boats with a meal.even if they have to grab it from your line. Please don’t feed the wildlife.

LAKE OPEN TO BOATING: Half hour before sunrise to half hour after.

USED EQUIPMENT FOR SALE Canoes, Kayaks and SUPS from our rental fleet. Variety of styles and prices to choose from. We have sold about half of what we want to sell. Come check them out Old Towns and Mad River 15hp Yamaha four stroke long shaft motor. Good condition $999.00 OBO

PIC # 1: Great day on the lake! pic courtesy d.isham

PIC # 2: Andrew, Conner and Uncle Doug have a great time with Larry/11Mile Marina.

TROUT: GOOD: Boaters are seeing good action around the lake. Lead core trolling rigs are hot. Come in and lets us show you our selection ready to fish. Bite times vary and each day may take an adjustment. Rapala’s still doing well. They are usually a strong Spring bait but they continue to catch nice fish. Kastmasters with reflecting tape gold, chrome or red have performed well. Sundown into dark best from shore. Lots of baits effective. Many like night crawler and tiny white mallow.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: Not even seeing one of two here or there. Mostly opportunities lost as when you do get one on they don’t quit fighting and always seem to get off. Pink and Chartreuse are good colors. Tas Devils, Kokanee Kustoms, Macks wedding rings and pink Needlefish are good bets that catch Trout while your hoping for a salmon.

NORTHERN PIKE: FAIR TO GOOD: Starting to see more fish being landed mostly smaller but a few decent ones here and there. Try trolling big sticks in 15 feet of water. Also big white or chartreuse tube jigs. Bill’s Spinner Baits in black/blue and brown/orange doing well only available here or Valley Country Tackle. Spinney reports still seeing bigger fish being caught.
