Lake Siskiyou - December 14th, 2005
RECORDED: 30 ° FISHING: Excellent

Brookies, browns, and rainbow are all biting at Lake Siskiyou. My client Rhonda Lauritson of Napa had quite a day, landing all three species of trout while trolling a Sep’s kick dodger (dark rainbow trout pattern, and all silver pattern) and a small piece of worm. The biggest trout of the day was a 19-inch 2-pound rainbow, that put on quite a show, jumping twice and making some nice drag burning runs when ity got near the boat. In the end, Rhonda won the battle and got herself a nice dinner fish. These fish are a great fun on 6’6” ultra light Rogue Rods (SP662) and Okuma Inspira 15 ultra light reels spooled with 4-pound Yo-Zuri hybrid clear line. We landed 30 total trout for the day (2 brookies, 5 browns, and 23 rainbows). The landing ratio did not start out good as we only boated two out of the first 10 but we got on a role after the slow start and landed 28 out of the next 32. The fish seemed a bit sluggish in the morning, which was probably the reason for the 2-for10 start. They were just not biting the bait very hard. The weather could not have been much better Sunny with just a slight breeze, although warmer air temperatures would have been nice. It did not get over 36 degrees and was as low as 20 in the morning. Rhonda and I pretty much had the lake to ourselves, we were 1 of 3 boats on the water. I have some days open this year if you like to get some fishing in before the New Year starts.
Available days December 17-24, 29-31

Twenty-four turkey day trout makes a nice warm up for a hot turkey dinner. Conner, Marie and I spent time before dinner landing one trout after another at Lake Siskiyou. The first 18 we landed while trolling the last half dozen I fly-fished a woolley booger bugger while Marie helped Conner drown a few night crawlers. The trout are in the shallows and at the mouths of all the feeder streams. We only saw one other boat on the lake today. It is nice to have a lake full of trout all to yourself. It will stay like this throughout the winter months.

The trout fishing at Lake Siskiyou is easy pickings. I trolled a Sep’s kick dodger with a worm trailer and landed 18 trout yesterday. The trout were all over the lake and could be seen surfacing for flies until dark. Many of the trout were in the 1 to 1.5 pound range. I also landed a few trout on the fly rod up near the creek on a woolly booger bugger. Monday, I drifted the Klamath River just above the mouth of the Scott River with Doug Blaney. We landed two adult Steelhead and some small trout. The river looks good but the fishing was pretty slow.
