Long lake Fishing Report

First Yak Trip To Long Lake

Ment to get up early but did not. Left the house loaded with the yak at noon and hit the water about one. Went strait across the lake from the mid lake dock and south. Threw a 3/8ths KVD bluegill spinnerbait all day. I would have tried something else but the lake is so shallow i was cleaning my spinnerbait about every cast and i did not want to deal with a crank or jig getting covered in slime or garbage. The lake is an off green color contrary to the clear water in all the other lakes. I headed south, and got no bites. The shore is very shallow for a long way out and the growth is very heavy. I ran into another boat and they were also first timers on the lake. Both were throwing buzz baits and by the time i caught back up with them, they were still empty handed. Got my personal best for WA state today, but the overall take on the lake was not so great. I think i will be trying other waters before i come back here again.
