More fish, less Virus in 2021.
Are you able to camp and put in a boat at Anderson right now?? (April 24?) Thanks.I've launched there before 15 May.... Just make sure there aren't any barriers erected that will cause you problems when launching. The docks won't be in the water just yet.....and there may be too much snow on the ground to get in there. If I remember correctly, last year it was a muddy mess trying to launch during the the thaw. You will most likely need 4 wheel drive if you don't have it. tooexcited

2nd week of March we had our sss handed to us. Same thing☹☹Launched at the damn today. Fished 8-1. We tried everything, every bait, every dodger, every depth. Not a single bite from anything. Few other boats on the water but they didn’t seem to catching much either. Anyone else have the same experience at Anderson? I feel we would have at least marked something today but not even a mark on the sonar.
Fished all day with 4 lines. Downrigger at everything from 1 foot to 50, fished from curlew to fall creek, speeds from 1.3 to 2.0. Caught 1 19" Chinook and 1 18" squawfish. Saw quite a few other boats and only saw one other person boat anything and it appeared to be a kokanee. Tried different dodgers, squid, rapalas, even tried targeting Chinook for 4 hours using kokanee colored double jointed raps and trolling anywhere from 20 to 60 at 2mph to 2.3 mph, and nothing. Was rare to even see anything on the fish finder.
