Fishing Forum

I took a quick trip up to Deer Creek Saturday... it was supposed to be a trip with my daughter and her boyfriend, but she ended up having to work last minute so me and boyfriend went anyway.

We caught three in the first hour and wasted three more hours trying to find where the bite went to no avail.

The fish we caught were all deep on lures trolling. After that died for an hour, we tried some bait down by where everyone bait fishes at the inlet... nothing but a couple of follows on jigging.

It looked like a slow day for most the anglers out there. I only recall seeing one other fish (it looked like a smallish perch) reeled in.

One of the fish was a nice 19" rainbow that was fun to fight in.

Other than that, nothing to write home about.

I have a trip planned to Strawberry on Saturday with a neighbor and his grandson. Hopefully the bite will be stronger up there.

And the storms will have passed by then.

Thanks for posting your report, sounds like some tough fishing but it's good to hear you caught a few. It must have been fun fishing with the daughters boyfriend[].

I got to say, the Trout at DC are so strong. I love the pull. I get a couple like that at Strawberry, but Deer Creek it is the norm. Love that! Fish that straighten hooks...yea baby.

Thanks for the report, Ive been wondering how you did. To bad your Daughter couldn't make it up there with you.
Ive yet to get anything over 17 1/4 inch out of Deer Creek and Ive Caught a LOT of Rainbow out of there so, You guys have some Bragging rights for a 19 incher.
Whatever I had on last Friday though was big, had him bye my Boat and seen him before he broke my line and stole my Brand new $7 CD.7 Rapala, They do fight hard.

Love the trout at Deer Creek. They are ANGRY. I have to say that the rainbows in Starvation are equally . Love it! They are tanks too!
