Wednesday 19th. Thought I would try a little duck hunting. Launched at first light Strawberry Marina. Headed west from the ramp. It was foggy, thought I might as well put out a crankbait. The dang cutthroats would not leave me alone!. Didn't get to any duck hunting. Crankbaits near the surface were killing it. Big cutties. Decided to make it a research day and put on all the oddball stuff I had but hadn't fished. Caught fish on various lures until it warmed up and I decided to try out my new side planers (N E from the marina). Put a deep diving crankbait on one side and a shallow crank on the other. Doubled up and one was a nice Rainbow, (dinner). Trolled back to the marina and picked up a smaller rainbow, (also dinner), and The biggest cutthroat I have ever got in a net, (slot buster - still swimming). Overall a very fun day. I love that lake!
