Title: Jones Lake
Post by: Rieber on November 28, 2004, 06:26:47 PM

Went up to Jones on Saturday in the new truck. So nice to have a truck again. We went up as far to the top gate then walked to the mouth/outlet of the little stream. I threw feathers and my kid threw spinners then loat and worm. Holly cow the cutties were hungry. My kid had a blast hooking 7 fish in 30 minutes. My flies only got wet. Some of the fish were nice and ranged from 8-14". All the fish were let go - we still have sockeye in the deep freeze. With the snow at the lake and the sky fairly clear - it was postcard perfect.

Nothing more fun than watching a kid having fun catching fish.  Awesome!

Excellent - how long until it ices over?  What truck did you get?

We fished in the lake but right at the mouth. It looks like it would be worth while trying spinners up that river/creek. There was no ice and I don't know how long it'll stay that way. I wouldn't mind taking the boat up there sometime soon. As for the truck - I bought a new 2004 Ford F-150 Supercrew 4x4.
