Put in at Spokane Campground launch and we towards damn. Water has cooled off due to the rain however visibility is good at this side of the lake. 8-10 ft. Fishing was phenomenal. I was fishing the ledges 10-15 ft. Caught 30+ fish (all smallmouth). Unfortunately all but 3 were under a 2 lbs. Fortunately one was 4.5 lbs!!! Really fun day and I made the right choice going down river/lake.

Fishing was very SLOWWWwwww today. The visibility was either 2 ft. or 10 ft depending on where you were in vicinity to the Carp. The flats had active bass that were on a bed or just cruising. The no wind and clear water made them very skittish. Hard to almost impossible to catch. The technique I used was to spot a fish and back off to where I could not see them. Then I would long cast with a ned rig and try to visualize where the fish was. Long day at Long Lake. Caught 3. Biggest was 2.75 lbs
