I hit Deer Creek last night thanks to the most wonderful fiance` ever. When i asked what she wanted to do for her birthday she said go to the lake and watch me fish with some friends. (she's a keeper!) Well onto my report. I left the raft home so i could hang out with everyone on shore. Normally i'm not much into bait fishing as i don,t keep many fish but my buddy the only other guy fishing really wanted some fish for the fridge. He and i were the only two fishing and we set up in Rainbow Bay picnic area. My buddy got one before we got there on salmon scented power bait. I set up with chartreuse power bait weighted down by a slide water filled clear bobber. hooked 2 nice fish back to back that broke me off and that's when i realized i grabbed my fly fishing leader 2 lb test. lol Fixed that problem and brought home 3 nice rainbows all about 17in. As soon as the sun went down the second our line hit the water a bite was on. We called it quits though to get home for some birthday cake. not sure how to post pics yet. i'll figure it out when i have something bigger then 17in to post.[
