Tuesday, Nov. 22nd For FishingMagician.com, I'm Eric Granstrom. The boat is tucked away for winter, so I've joined the ranks of the bank fishermen out there. I got up early Sunday morning and headed north to fish rainbow from the bank on Lake Roosevelt. Driving through Waterville, my truck's dashboard thermometer read 8-degrees. I wasn't quite sure if I'd hit a time vortex coming up Pine Canyon on US-2 and jumped ahead to January rather than it being November 20th. The fog was blowing off Banks Lake as I passed over the lower end at Coulee City and it froze to the pavement as it passed, creating unbelievably slick conditions. I arrived at my parking spot at about 7:45 and had a line in the water by 8. I had the stretch of beach near a net pen all to myself for over an hour, catching a nice, fat, 18-inch rainbow the first 30-minutes. I had two in the box by 9:15 and felt confident I'd have my limit fairly quickly. The bite slowed and I ended the day with four in 8-hours of fishing. Sparkle Sherbet PowerBait was preferred. Bring wood for a fire! Until next time, Good Fishing!
