Doesn’t look like the whitefish bite is going to happen this year again on Flathead Lake. Read Dick Zimmer, The Macman’s, post here. The Macman thinks we are going to have to wait till 2015 until the whitefish fishing gets hot again. Lake trout fishing is good though but with the warmer weather you have to go deep, and I mean deep, like 250-270 feet deep. Zimmer tells you how to do it and what to use.
I went fishing on the Flathead River this past week. Had some luck catching some smallmouth bass early in the morning, but as the weather warmed up the fishing slowed down. You can read my report here.
