Update on Bonneville WF run at Bear Lake-Tuesday 12/3

[BearLakeFishGuy]

Fished Bear Lake today.  Started at 0800.  We were only after Bonneville WF and fished both east and west shorelines in several places.  We caught a few WF, but they were all males and nothing larger than maybe 15".  This tells me the run is barely getting started.  The good news was: while fishing for WF we landed 7 cutthroat and they were all really nice sized fish and fought really well in the shallow, cold water.  Never fished over 12' of water and we caught the WF in 4-8' over rocky shoreline areas.  Sorry, no pics since it's a pain to dig out the camera with all the clothes on!  All fish were caught on 1/8oz roadrunner or small marabous or plastics tipped with Gulp earthworms.  Color did not seem to matter.  So, the WF spawning run is just starting and should really get going by the weekend and it should be good fishing for WF though next week.  Take advantage of the high water, good weather (cold but calm) and just get outside!!
