ive been to ross a couple times, fishing is usually pretty good for around here. the trout are good size and really pretty. most fish are about 16-18", and occasionally up to about 22". dont expect to see any of those "25-30 inch" fish mentioned earlier. the northernmost 2 miles of the lake is where the best fishing is, as its the only shallow zone with a respectable food chain. although there is brookies and bull trout, its real rare to catch one, other than up in the skagit. coho killers are a pretty good match for the forage base in the lake, but i would recommend swapping out that meat hook for a lighter wire. ross is the boss!
