My buddy went to GVL and BBL this weekend. He said gvl was slow and the one trout he caught was a dinker (8 inches?), and he fished half the day. He said most people did not catch and a few did. So he left gvl and drove and hit up BBL like I did last weekend.
At BBL he caught a ton in Papoose Bay with a boat and near white buoy line from shore. He was most successful around 8-15 feet down using lures in Papoose and slip bobbers near the bouy line with nightcrawlers and different colored powerbait. For lures, he used mostly kastmasters (solid gold and solid silver) and thomas buoyants (silver with polka dot pattern and copper with polka dot pattern). He said others were catching too. He said he must have released about 15 and kept 10 for the two days he was there. He also said he fished near the red house and the trout were hitting on Fire Bait. He caught 3 using firebait in just 1 hour. He also used a 5 foot leader like a did last week.
Sounds like BBL is still hot! I always encourage people to fish BBL because its just the best! Nothing like a beautiful lake with trout pullin' on your line!
Anyone else have a report on BBL? It would be nice to read other anglers' experiences with BBL.
