My father, little brother, and I spent the weekend on Rufus Woods. On Saturday we trolled for about half the day running wedding rings below a flasher and didnt get a bite. We trolled all around the 1st pump to the state park. We then spent the next half of the day bait fishing the same area with better results. We kept two 3# and a 4.5#. We used rainbow powerbait with about a three foot leader and powerbait trout pellets. Sunday it was a little slower but we managed a couple of fish, one keeper at 5#. We also ran into the infamous bluefin louie. By the way, the smoked trout was great, Thank You. We went out Monday morning and managed a couple of 2#. We all had a great time out there and will check more of the lake.

Hey dirty.dan4, Great report & it’s nice to hear you caught some fish and had a good weekend. While trolling, it has been hard to pick up fish lately. I think as the water warms the size of the fish and the frequency of the bites will increase.

I have better luck with wedding rings if I use the bigger ones tipped with night crawler and don't use the pop gear. My dad always uses pop gear and when we fish together I always do better then him without it. Just my observation.

It was great to meet you guys, and for the first trip (any trip for that matter) you guys did pretty good. Keep the hooks in the water, and that 8-10 pounder will be yanking on the line. Hope to run into ya again someday. Safe travels and fishing success.
