Pass Lake - Deception Pass

Still getting "Very Good" reports out of Pass Lake the past few days. The Chirnomids pupae are active and the fish are taking advantage of the situation and feeding heavily. The key to being successful is trying to figure out what size and color the fish are keying upon, the area of the lake it is taking place, the depth at which they are feeding and the presentation. Once this puzzle is figured out then your success can be quite rewarding if not then it can be another tough day. Pass Lake is notorious at not yielding its bounty easily!

The rainbows are averaging from 13 - 17 inches, the browns up to 19. There are larger specimens of both species.

With the weather we are to recieve the next couple of days I am sure there will not be too much pressure on Pass. With the rain and especially the high winds predicted in the Straits the fishing prospects are quite glim! Pass takes quite a hit from the winds from the Strait and makes it quite unpleasant.
