    Report: I ished Saturday morning or about 45 min. I walked the shoreline near Fuller Grove campground throwing a white rog. A nice 4# ish inhaled my rog and burrowed back down into the weeds. I eventually pulled her out and let her go. Fished another 20 minutes and then went back to camp and made breakast.

    Report: There is nothing to report. It was too windy to troll and there aren't any ish in this lake anyway except squawish. The logging road (i you can call it that) is worse than ever. Nice lake as ar as being quiet but probably because the road is so terrible and there are no ish in the lake. I hear the trout that they do catch are caught trolling on the west shore or with salmon eggs down the eel river. Both ailed or us.
