Quality over Quantity these days at DFL. The fish do play hard to get, but when you are lucky enough to hook into a couple, watch out! The reduction of the crowds has made it a real pleasant lake to wet a line these days, but it can be far and few between fish. I wouldn't consider it...

Sorry to bring this up again, too lazy to go research it myself, but what is the latest on the road, launch, and campground situation at Merrill this year? Peach

Ha - That is funny. The first lake I did use my Wilderness Lite Float Tube to make that hike down. Love that tube, I have used it often on any hike in lake. It has had a lot of positive reviews on this forum and I agree with them. So lite and easy to deal with. Used my standard Outcast...

Hey Bakerite - Been here all this time, I guess I just don't post as much as I used to :). BTW - I fished your former Oregon home reservoir earlier in April. Caught a ton of trout but only one over 12 inches. Water level was super low, probably will go dry this year. Peach

I appreciate all of the positive comments - Thanks everyone. Question - Obviously the first lake in my report has Browns in it, does anyone know if it is also stocked with Tiger Trout as well? Just curious. Peach

At the end of April, I returned to a fairly well-known hike in lake in Grant county that I haven’t been to in a while. It was only my third visit to this lake ever and has been 17 years since my last visit. It hasn’t changed at all the past 17 years. Most of you will probably recognize this lake...

Great Report! Thanks for sharing.

Love that lake! Thanks for the report Rex, looks like you had a wonderful couple of days.

Thanks for the report Paul.

Delayed great report response to the delayed report :)

Nice Report Paul!

I have seen plenty of folks do this when Wickiup reservoir is drawn down to basically a river and do very well, but it isn't a secret and you will have company. Peach

Thank you all for a lot of good recommendation and suggestions. I hope others find this topic/discussion useful as I am sure there are a few other folks close to my demographic (or any demographic) that can pick up a tip or two and learn along with me. As someone pointed out earlier, I didn’t...

This topic has been discussed periodically on these forums but I wanted to ask the question again. After 30+ years, I took an early retirement package from Intel when they did their first round of layoffs in Sept. of 2024. The package was too good to pass up, but it did thrust me into...

Are all of the cutties in that lake wild and considered SRC or are they wild residents that stay in the lake most of the time? Also, the only stocked fish that are placed in it are the rainbows or are the cutties stocked too? Peach
