I have really been lucky to have such a good relationship with my dad and a common love of the outdoors is definitely one of the foundation blocks. I grew up spending the summers on the Idaho side of Bear Lake valley chasing my dad around the many mountain streams, lakes and reservoirs in the area he was raised as a child. Somehow my dad spent his entire youth never having caught a fish out of big blue, but we changed that this last winter after doing the cisco disco and wetting a line off of the north end of the lake. He landed a couple of beautiful native cutts. Now that he is newly re-retired and I have bought a fishing boat we are looking forward to spending quite a few days out on the water. If all goes well we will be christening the new boat on big blue this weekend. We are new to fishing from a boat in general, and anyone who has any hints or tips for fishing Bear Lake this time of year would greatly be appreciated.
