Central OR best bets

Fish mojo · 10-04-2001, 07:09 PM

Looking to do a trip next weekend to a Central Oregon lake. Any reports or ideas? Got a boat, looking for big fish (no downriggers). Thinking about Paulina, not affected by the low water reservoirs. Where to go???? [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]

Fish for Browns from the shore at Wickiup. Cast a big Blue/White shadrap and retrieve. Best in the evening.

Or, Troll a small frog hotshot at East Lake.

Or, If you have a fairly shallow draft boat, Fish the channels at Crane for some Big rainbows. Use a bunny leach if you are a ff'er, or anchor and dead drift a nightcrawler for bass and bows.

Now is the season for BIG fish.
