Anyone been fishing up in Murdock Basin this year? Marshall lake, echo, joan, booker, etc.? How about the streams? Just wondering. Need to do some fishing but I think the old knees need a break from the hiking.

Never fished the lakes too much, but got into alot of 8-12 inch brookies in the little stream up there, definitely the stream that runs through the ATV drop off area, caught them on a salmon eggs last fall!!!

That little stream was good once for me too. I was there with a friend fairly early in the year so the flow was pretty high. The fish(brookies) were smaller, the biggest being about 9 inches, but the catching was fast. No kidding, I caught and released about 40 fish in 3 hours. I only quit because I ran out of worms. I was getting 5 or 6 fish from some of the holes. That was a lot of fun.

Junksiege, you know how it is up there. I have not been up there this year but I have a hard time believing the fishing would be bad anywhere in the Murdock area. Last year(early spring) was great at Pyramid, Echo, and Jean. Let us know how you do.
