Fished 2 days about 8 hrs each day. Waded and had 2 exceptional days. 60+ fish both days. The fishing was like it was years ago. Lots of nice fish over 13 inches. Biggest Saturday was 18 and the biggest Sunday was 17. Fish were eating baby bass, perch, and Olive sculpin. Caught quite a few on charteruse block head popper. Caught some on a foamy pete. Again it was incredible how many rising fish through out the day. If this was a trout stream it would boil with all the bugs on the river. All fish were healthy and were fat as could be.
 
j_man,
How was the spread of the year classes? Many dinks? Still big bass around that area, but a report of some younger fish would be great. I was out this spring and caught quite a few youngins', just wondering what you saw.
 
Quite a few different age brackets. The area I am fishing has had decent spawns each year. Even though these fish move a lot this area has been the most consistent. Might be weak on the 3 year olds a little bit.
