I knew the fishing at Omak was going to be good, so Jim Passage and I spent the night in Omak and launched the boat again on Tuesday morning. We had scouted out the area on the lake where we could find good numbers of fish, so we ran right back down there. We were into fish right away. Jim had his 7 weight fly rod loaded with a sinking line out the back of the boat. I put two downrigger rods out each side and another rod out the back. We had paid the additional fee of two dollars for a two pole endorsement, so we could have four lines in the water. If anything, the fishing was even better. Although there was a very good hatch of bugs on the water that the trout were feeding on, they still jumped on our flies and plugs. We found the thermocline at about 60 feet again and I put the downriggers at that depth. Just before we were going to call it a day, at about 11:30, I dropped one rod down to 100 feet and had a fish on immediately. Turned out to be the biggest of the trip, measuring 28 inches.
