Stormy weather and wind tested anglers skills and tackle but those who persevered took home fish. Lots of limits were caught before 11am. Power Bait (especially salmon peach, garlic, spring green and rainbow), night crawlers, jigs and lures ( jakes, thomas buoyants, power worms) all caught trout. Hot spots included the western and eastern shore of lake 3 as well as the eastern and northern shores of lake 2.
