otter creek/piute 11/21 - 2fishon - 11-23-2007
Got to Otter Creek about 9am. 17degrees and cloudy. The boat ramp was icy so I didn't launch my boat. Fished the shore for an hour with a Jakes, no luck. There were some people fishing the point across from the State park that caught one fish with bait while I was there. The park ranger said that bait fishing from shore had been fairly good, better than trolling. I gave up and headed to Piute. I fished the shore for about an hour at Piute before the wind made me rethink. I caught three rainbows, all about 18" and fat. There was a couple of guys from Las Vegas bait fishing by the state park. They caught two rainbows around 5lb. each while I was there. Very nice fish. Powerbait seems to do the trick. I'm not above using bait, but I didn't even bring any along. The temperature never got above 22 degrees and there was ice along the shore of both Piute and Otter Creek. Both lakes are really low.

Cant wait for otter creek to ice up its good fishing there.The fat bows bite really good at the points when its iced up. Did you use any lures i have had more bite with lures than bait fishing.
