TROUT:VERY GOOD::The hot Trout action continues. Lots of fish caught on many different baits and methods. Trolling has been very productive. Tas Devils, Rapala’s, Kastmasters. Mack’s wedding rings and everything in between. Some catch bigger fish than others. Deeper tends to score bigger fish. Bite times vary but we are catching them very consistently throughout the day.

KOKANEE SALMON: POOR: Pretty much the same report. There are anglers catching one here one there. Mostly from North Shore to points East around Duck Island and Deer Island. Most are using Dodgers and Sling Blades with a variety of offereings like Mack’s Wedding Rings, Wiggle Hoochies and Squids tipped with corn or Gulp Maggot. Look to Kokanee Kustoms and Pro Troll Kokanee Killer. We have had some opportunities but lost them at the boat on Macks Imperial spoon in red trolled clean all by itself on a lead core out five colors. No blades no corn no maggots.

NORTHERN PIKE: FAIR: Action is picking up ever so slightly. Smaller fish the order of the day with large ones seen prowling the shallows. Big sticks, large spoon and large tube jigs are a good bet. They like fire tiger color patterns.

SPECIAL NOTE: 11 Mile Marina is located at the North Shore in Eleven Mile State Park, Lake George Colorado. A CPW Park Pass is required on all vehicles entering the Park.  Any fees for Guide/Outfitter/Rental services do not include Park fees, CO fishing license or gratuities.
