Arrived at Caples at 7:30am. Started throwing different hand poured trout worms that I have been making all week. We were getting a lot of bites but we were having a hard time hooking anything. Finally my sister hooks up on a hand poured worm in a gold sparkle pattern and lands a nice little brookie. I hook up next with a nice colorful brookie. We started to see some of the bigger trout cruising the shoreline, so I started to throw a 1" tube jig with a 1/64oz jighead. At around 9, I hooked and landed a 8lb 6oz trout. At 9:15, I hooked and landed a 7lb 10oz beautiful trout with a nice full tail. At 10:30, I hooked and landed a 6lb 6oz trout. We both caught a limit each and ended our day at 11:30.

I live about 25 minutes away ... and now I'm dying here~ Gosta get away to Caples. Looks like you were on the shore near the dam at the west end. Couldn't tell if you were on the South side or north? .... maybe both?

Do you think those hogs were a result of the re-planting of the lake?

Congrats and props on a great morning of fishing and family.

Keep the reports coming.

BillyB, My brother also lives about 25 minutes from there. I love that area. My wife and I stayed there for about a week in June. We couldn't catch anything at Caples Lake, although we caught fish in its inlet creek, outlet creek, and several other places during our trip. I am glad they were biting this time for the poster (Chimp?). Those Brookies are nice fish, and those Rainbows are huge.
