Best Time for Lake Trout

Post by beerman1981 » Sun May 04, 2008 9:00 am

Hey guys,

My wife and I are joining my parents for a few days at Lake Chelan, and are planning on doing a charter for Lake Trout through Darrel and Dad's (I saw the advertisement on this website). We haven't set any dates yet (but are thinking somewhere between July and September). From the looks of it, it the fishing for Mackinaws is pretty hot year around at Chelan. I scoped out their picture section, and their are trophies caught year around. I've emailed them a few times regarding various questions, and like I say, I think we will do well regardless of the month. But, does anybody think one month (July through September) will be more productive than the other? Also, has anybody used Darrel and Dad's fishing guide service before?

Thanks,

Beerman

Darrel & Dad's guide service know that lake very well.They will know where those fish are at and as long as they are biting then"Fish On".That time of year those fish are going to be in one of the deep basins except at night when they will come up nearer to the surface to feed.Book the trip and remember there is no limit on those Macks.
