After fishing an afternoon on Rufus Woods, Tom and I spent the night in Grand Coulee at the Grand Coulee Center Lodge. I like staying here as not only are the rooms are nice and they have outside outlets so you can charge your bow mount motor overnight. When we got up we were surprised how cold it was. Everything had a thick coating of frost, but most of it was gone by the time we arrived at the Net Pens launch site. We were having about the same kind of luck catching trout as we did the day before, which means it wasn’t great. I decided to troll downstream with bottom bouncers to see if could hook a walleye and we usually get triploids while we are doing this. We had several bites without hooking up, but I finally set the hook on something. Turned out to be a big whitefish. I kept this as I always wanted to try one as they are very abundant on Banks Lake. I sautéed the fillets, after removing the large pin bones, my wife and I liked the flavor. She immediately thought of a recipe that would be a great way to prepare it.
