I am heading to lake chelan next week and was wondering what you guys use for trout. I have fished from the bank with power bait and did well. This time i am bringing my boat and would like to troll for some. Do I use the norm: spinners, spoons, popgear, worms, etc? or do you guys have anyother suggestions. Also where are some good spots to go that are close by 25 mile creek campground. Thanks in advance!!

watch the wind up that far, it usually blows hard every afternoon and it kicks up in a hurry

I grew up fishing L.C., so here's a couple of things that worked for me:

For kokanee: Troll thin-bladed spoons or wedding rings behind pop-gear. If you use leaded line, go 5-6 colors deep and s-l-o-w. Downriggers are nice if you got 'em. Don't be surprised to hook a Mac this way, too.

For trout: This time of year the area has a lot of yellowjackets. Troll or cast 1/4 oz. yellow/black roostertails near outcroppings, coves, and docks.

Good luck!

Hey sullie, try using a small chrome dodger in the 000 size and a small pink squid with a double hook set-up w/ a piece of white shoepeg corn on the front hook, or the dodger and a wedding ring with corn or a small piece of worm for trout/Kokes. I prefer the dodger because it tends to flatten out better and you feel the fish as opposed to the pop gear. For lakers use the U-20 FLATFISH w/ the glow or chartruese head.

P.S. Let us know how you did on Sat.

Hey sullie about a half hour after you left big daddy landed a twenty pounder on the same spoon that we told you BUT we were using some out of the ordinary flashers i'll show u later.

just got back from chelan and with alot of fish. i got over 15 cutties and a nice 18.25 inch rainbow. all caught on a wedding ring with a piece of worm.
