At the same time I was going over to visit my new boating partner, Mark’s Marine, my friend James Lebow was going to be fishing at Waitts Lake, which is northwest of Spokane. They invited me to stop by and jump on his boat. I had heard of Waitts Lake and knew it was a great lake to fish for rainbow trout, brown trout, perch and largemouth bass. He and Tyler Berqum had rods already rigged up and we started trolling right after we left the dock in front of his campsite. They found that using gang trolls ahead of a Rooster Tail or crank bait worked pretty good and showed me how the rainbow and brown trout would attack these lures. There were a lot of small rainbow from the spring plant in the lake, but we did get few larger rainbow and brown trout, as well. I wanted to see what the bass fishing was like and brought couple of rods with my favorite Brush Hog and lizards already attached. One of the first docks that we cast to produced a dandy largemouth. There is a public access launch on the lake, and I would like to try it again.
