Went up to Scofield after work on Wednesday. Had rain and wind most of the way up Spanish Fork Canyon and actually considered turning around. By the time I hit the summit the rain had stopped. Arrived at the lake about 6. The arm at the first state park was calm but the main body of the lake had wind and was a little choppy but not too terrible. We launched the boat and headed to the island. We only saw two other boats. We dropped anchor on the Northeast corner and started fishing with power bait. I caught two bows about 12" in 1 1/2 hours. Around 7 the wind quit and the lake was totally calm. We decided to troll around the island and in the next hour picked up 6 nice fish while trolling a triple teaser. The biggest was a 2 1/2 pound female cutt and the others were averaging 18” bows. All in all it was a nice evening and relaxing to be on the water. It was nice and cool and very quiet.
