    I won't even go sat. or sun. because it's to crowded. I saw a pic of the west shore on a sat. and thought "Geez, I ain't doing that!" I think I saw that pic here somewhere. It was also when the water was a lot lower and there was more easily accessible shoreline. Water is getting higher and higher too.

    Weekdays provide more elbow room and less crossed lines.

    If you don't mind it being crowded, though, you're likely to have a pretty good day whenever you go. Folks there are pretty cool all around and the staff is helpful and polite, and I pretty much always can have friendly dialogue with whoever my "neighbor" is that day.

    ya last weekend was the final straw for me i we camped over night up on the west shore and it was cold and just really nasty with bugs, then about 30 minutes of fishing i get these 2 guys who literally come outta no where and set up in between me and a buddy, we where spaced maybe 20 feet away... needless to say those punks crossed my line soo many times i had to say gtfo of here... so thats why im try'n to go to a different spot and during the week...

    thnx for the replys im headed out there on Tuesday next week i think :)

    I have never been on a weekend and only once have I even paid at the gate. Usually have to go into the tackle shop to pay. Since trout island is actually and island now usually have it all to yourself if you can get out there.
