When I couldn't launch at Rockport I decided to try Jordanelle. I was able to launch but the fishing was slow.
Because I tried to lauch at Rockport first we didn't get out on Jordanelle until about 8:30. We trolled down the inlet pulling all the usual lures with verry little luck.
We did pick up three fish, each on a different lure.
When we got back to the marina I started chatting with another boat that was fishing in the same area, and said they had a great day pulling 2.5" countdown rapalas. The smaller size seems to be what was triggering the bites. I had on some 4" rapalas and din't catch anything with them
Next time I'm out there I'll give the smaller countdowns a try and see if that;s the trick.
