P4 Over the weekend 9.29 -10.1.23

How did everyone do? I counted 20 boats on the WI side yesterday and there were more on Saturday.

I didn’t see any nets come out other then a few friends catch monster sturgeon.
Lots of 360 poles over the side of boats. Did they help catching or just locating?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Picked up a few trolling cranks Saturday . And ripping a few blades shallow. Nothing fast and furious .

Sunday played on the lower end of the pool . Sheep and white bass played . Walleye laughed at our efforts .

Avoided the dam area. Focused on head of lake. Got rained on Friday. Tried again Sunday. Lots of short fish. Biggest was maybe 16″. No 360 for me. I just used The Force. (poorly apparently).

I thought about putting a line out a few times, but it was so peaceful. I just enjoyed the solitude with a few thoughts about what everyone else was catching.

Did well pulling cranks Saturday and Sunday in the river, probably cought 30 or so eyes between the 2 days. 10 to 12 of them being nice keepers 15.5 to 17.5″, seemed the color of the crank made a big difference

No luck with that. Mostly chartreuse or purple with chrome

I caught walleyes yesterday 6 foot and 21 foot . Blades and raps but that’s all I tried . Use your electronics and have confidence in your presentation . I’d say 10-14 if I had to say depth .

12 to 16 feet

was there Wednesday colville to the dam. nothing on hair, sheep on jigging raps and not much luck casting. i did catch my first spotted gar which was a bucket list fish for me so i was stoked!
water still 60 plus but that rain and cold temps will have it low 50’s by the weekend.
let the games begin!
