Greg and Lindsay: Roosevelt - 7/21
Our family rented a cabin for the weekend near Lake Roosevelt. We spent most of our time playing board games, hiking, biking, swimming, and tubing behind the boat. Lindsay and I did sneak away on Saturday for an hour of fishing. Within 10 minutes, she had two walleyes in the live well. After an hour, she had 4 walleyes and I got 1. That was plenty for fish tacos that evening, so we picked up her mom and brother and boated the rest of the day. At the dock, we ran into Scott M and a couple other club members. They were cleaning a mess of fish after a successful morning.
More info for club members. The cabin we rented was between Ft Spokane and Hunters. Lindsay and I launched at Hunters and motored down lake on the Ferry county side. We fished the top end of a long weed bed. Walleyes were in 25 to 30 feet of water. We missed several short bites. We trolled chartreuse and silver metal Colorado blades at 1.5 mph. Lindsay was pulling a large number 4 spinner blade which accounted for more bites and more fish.
