Went to Panquitch fished Saturday and Sunday Moning
Saturday was Awesome, one of the best fishing days this years. Between the three of us in the boat we probably landed 35-45 fish. Many were the small ones just planted , most were some early planters that had gotten really fat, only 14 inches long but probably a solid pound. We did pick up a few nice 16-18 inch cuts and rainbows.
The real prize was this super fat 19 inch bow which probably weighted 4+ pounds.
Sunday we only fished the morning before making the long drive home. The fishing was slower, but the fish were better quality. Several 18 inch cuts.
Each day started off slow until we found what was working. Saturday the best producer was a green or silver dodger with a white or green squid flat lined behind the boat. Also gold colored spoons where very consistent. (Jake's,
Kastmasters, and Dare Devils). Toward the end of the day a silver and green spoon was killing it, (Cripplure) this is what caught the big one.
Sunday the dodger and squid combo was dead, but the gold spoons still worked, as well as 3.5 inch rapalas.
The biggest trick for both days was to troll slow. 1.2 to 1.5 mph.
We were past several times by another boat that was moving about 2 - 2.5 mph and they had only picked up a few fish.
