Thanks for the report Taildancer. Unfortunately to get out just for the day will cost a fortune in gas alone. I can still do my trips but not as many. Wind hasn't been too favorable either when comes down making those plans.

6-28-2022 Finally got a trip to the Font. Met up with some friends who came from Green River and other friends that were there since the afternoon before. We all had good success, but it was hard to find them on the sonar unit. After taking water temp down to 80' the temp it turned out it...

South of the pipeline and just north of state line, if you know where swim beach its straight across to the east side.

Nice going Aaron, sounds like Rawlins is getting warm with kokes. Were there other boats in the area? I'm chomping at the bit to get out somewhere. Appears the big "W" will be kicking up all over for a few days.

Thanks for the report kokanee64, glad to see you got into them. I receive mostly verbal reports that is not posted. Since last year reports have been a difficult challenge at the Gorge as well as other lakes. Some had good success while others struggled to get a bite.

Thanks, Ben, for the tutorial. I have a pair of older manual Scotty's I bought back in the mid 80's. I have gotten my use out of them over a 20yr span. Finally went to 4 electrics and a bigger boat. The brakes on those Scotty's have never been adjusted but do indicate they need a slight...

I did a solo trip 5-23 to Strawberry. Launched from the Bay and fished main body. When first arriving, I noticed how breezy & cold it was. Once on the water the chop wasn't without swells but no sheep in the pen early and not many boats with maybe 6 trailers in the parking lot. Both lines in at...

It has gotten to the point when I get back from a trip whether its a short trip or one that's a little longer, I will gas my truck at 1/4 or 1/2 tank to keep current with prices. A jump in fuel prices is a daily occurrence. Whenever I'm on a Gorge run it's automatic I fill at destination and...

Got in my first trip to the Berry on Friday the 13th, and that it was. Got on the water at 0630 with lines in 10min later. A very cool morning & flat with water temp at 41°. First fish was a bow-released. Next 2 came were feisty kokes in decent 2lb range. The 2nd one came as the wind started...

Hi Tim, wife is doing good and I'm officially off of house arrest as of today after spending 2mo administering eye meds. She picked the wrong time to have her cataracts removed. I missed out on spring fishing and meeting up with you guys at the ISE this year. Now that she can see again she is...

I have been in what seems like house arrest for the past 2mo with taking care of wife after she went thru cataract surgery on both eyes a month apart. When I saw the first post of some fishing at the Font I was chomping at the bit to get there. Now I'm freed up and with this weather pattern we...

Tim, I agree with you and often wonder if they would. When burbot first became part of the fishing regulations there was a set limit with a must kill order on all caught. It didn't take long to convince the powers to be to change a limit to unlimited catch & kill. Unfortunately, macks have been...

Thanks for the report Dorado, I didn't think ice off already happened. I'll be making plans soon with a friend to spend a couple of days there.

I'm going to miss my spring fling in April at the Gorge crymeariver and might see a day sometime in May. Fontenelle is on the horizon too.

Thanks for the early report Mike, sorry the fish were elusive. Some would say its too early but like you I would be on the Gorge and as much as possible. My trip will be in late May.

Soon the heat will be turning up & the power squadrons lake lice will be out taking over the waters. Its a good time to enjoy the passion.

Easy Canyon is how I describe it. It was nonstop action until I pulled the rods so I can have a cup of coffee & breakfast sandwich, but it was a quick break. Was unable to find kokes very elusive. E Canyon makes for a good tuneup getting ready for the season. My tally was about 25 bows.

Wind has settled down, but winter has returned. Decided to give it a try to see if the kokes want to play. I'm able to get boat prepped this am before taking the 45min trip. Big red should be up and starting the thaw process by the time I hit the trail.

I can once I get into the 3rd & 4th week with more likely of the latter. 1st week is 4 times daily eye med, 2nd week 3X's daily, 3rd week 2X's daily, 4th week 1X daily. This is part of life belonging to the Golden Years class. Its just a minor roadblock.

I get to continue the slumber for a while. My wife scheduled cataract surgery Mar 22 with the first eye. So with the return of the ISE I had to put it off not to chance contracting covid from a possible super spreader event. This keeps me home bound with administering eye meds for a month. My...
