When it comes to big Macks, I have seen (not caught by me, of course[laugh]) some up to 26" near the lava slides on the east side that took perch/sucker meat on a white glow in the dark 3" tube jig just off the bottom in 90-105 feet of water. However, I saw some even bigger caught early in the morning in the shallows on the south end by the weed beds at Doctor Creek. This was about 4 years ago. The young punks (of course [angelic]) were using spotted green and brown tube jigs with perch meat on them. They were leaving at about 11:00 AM and had been out since about 5:30AM. I never have been able to duplicate their technique, timing and success. Maybe next year![blush] My friend from work did well for splake, rainbows and perch in 15-50 ft. of water just out from the Fish Lake lodge near the Twin Creeks inlet earlier this month. She, yes, she said the fishing was quite fast all day.
