Leaches and a snell with a red hook. Drifting over the first and second breaks, we picked them up in anywhere from 8 to 27 fow.

Nice job ! No slots at all ? Were most too big ?

Thanks very much Steve, that is the same leech rigging that I prefer with a red hook. WOW quite a range in terms of FOW! Nevertheless your work paid off those are some dandy fish!

I will be back home at Malmo Bay in two weeks ~~ so I appreciate your positive report. WISH the slot fish were a bit easier to come by! Glen Ertl must a caught them all! (or Bobber and Fishnpole!) I will be hitting the Agate Bay gravel bars hard or deeper water as it plays out; 18-26FOW is what I wil try first with a nice leech rig and red hook.

The Malmo Bay Bomber boat is ready!

You bet Mike! In the years I fished this lake with my dad we've learned the simpler the better
