Nothing but trout.
Nine bites, eight lakers landed, lines in 7-11 a.m., trolled 90 to 140' and back (out due N, returned SW). Trying for a king or two (a couple 22 lbers were caught Sun) with Spin Doctors and flies and meat rigs along with pinned sliders, but never touched a silver fish. 200' and 300' coppers also never hit. All bites 100' and below on divers and 'riggers.
Temps dropped into mid-50s at 85 down, 45-48 degrees at 100'.
Don't know how anyone else was doing because never saw another troller.
One of the regular perch guys caught four perch in four hours.

Thanks for the report from city Mike. Pretty dismal perch season for sure.
