I went over to big blue this morning to try for the Whitefish. Well it was a little choppy as I launched, but before I got a line in, the dang wind monster showed up with 3' waves and I couldn't hold the boat where I wanted it and soon the waves were almost rolling over the front of the boat, my gear kept getting tipped over in the boat and when the back end of the boat was into the waves they filled that trough in front of my motor so I chickened out and headed back over the mountain to Hyrum. Launched there around 11:30 and it was just a few ripples and lots of hungry 11-12"ers. Probably caught 20-25 in the next two hours. Couldn't keep two poles out for all the bites. Did get one 14"er. Sure was nice to have calm water and hungry fish even if they were small. At least I got the skunk out of the boat. Oh and I probably lost as many fish as I caught today. I couldn't keep them on. Ended up using my ultra light rod and wow was that fun. Made the small fish seem like good ones. Sorry no pictures. Later J
