Day 1 Silver Lake : Water level was up compared to last 2 years, we Trolled late afternoon and got 2 small browns right out of the dock and a few rainbows for the fryer.
Day 2 and 3 where on June Lake. Most of our trolling hits where on the south side or the north mostly on south using flashers and chrome dodgers.

Thanks man, June had some big cutthroats and rainbows taken the weekend we where there, the other trollers we spoke with downriggers where at '50 mid lake area. We normally hang around Silver , Intake II, South lake Mcgee for our trip we just weren't into loading gear and driving to different places this trip still had a blast for the short time we where there.

Great report! I hear a lot of good things about Reverse Creek Lodge. May have to try them out next time.

Looks like you were flat-lining, not lead-core trolling?

Love this time of year up there, but haven't been up there in the fall since my kids started going to school.

Shinbob,
We have been staying there year after year -every oct, the reg cabins we normally book where unavail but the A-frames where nice and clean had everything you need in them-David and his family are really nice there. I should have brought a LC setup-to get in on the bigger units at June or even a clamp on Cannon DR. Trying new water next time we head back up-i'm in the same boat-my kid starts school in mid-august but we'll be bringing him up for a summer trip before football practice starts. Good luck.
