Title: St Mary Lake, June 6th - 8th 2008
Post by: slick on June 08, 2008, 01:52:46 PM
WARNING....If you plan on going to St Mary's Lake for Small Bass wait until it warms up just a little bit more!!! :)

Just come back from spending this weekend (June 6 to 8th) on St Mary Lake.

Was hunting for Small Mouth...it was a really hard fish..Hooked a few on the edges close to the road on crank baits. Not many peeps were hooking into them. Talked to a few folks, they said its been really slow for Smalls this season..It been away too long winter, not too active yet.

In years past never ever caught trout there but so it seems that St Mary's has a great trout fishery. Catchin them on flys and spoons.

Never knew the trout fishing was pretty good there!!

SLICK...out

In the summer, paddling around in the Canoe with a flatfish and a fly, I'd say 15-20 bass hookups for every 1 trout.

Not this year like he said the bass fishing is very slow!I was there a few weeks back hooked into a couple of decent Bass but it was Trout fishing that rocked.

There are plenty of bass biting in St. Mary's.

Next time, move offshore and get down deeper.

I was there last weekend and got lots of bass. Not deep either like Damien said.
