I don't honestly know what the difference is but the first 2 years the fish were hot to bite. The first season with only about 10k fish in the lake it was double and triple hookups and we ran standard Lake WA bare hooks gear. Early and easy limits were the norm. The next year was equally stupendous but each subsequent year the fish became increasingly finicky despite what seemed to be good catchable numbers, even in excess of those first pilot years.

Edit, thinking about it I think there was actually closer to around 4,000 fish in the lake the first trip I made down there in the first season. It was very very productive fishing.
