Well we spent Memorial Day Weekend this year camping at the Inlet Campground on Lemolo Lake. Tried fishing the North Fork of the Umpqua 1 evening with no luck. The next morning we got up, cooked some breakfast and took a buddies 2 kids out on the lake. We ended up netting 18 rainbows, all in the 10"-12" range. No monsters, but the kids had a blast. We trolled 1/8 ounce spinners with a rainbow color pattern. I didn't seem to matter what the brand of the spinner was. At one point we had a Panther Martin, Blue Fox, and a Rooster Tail out and every single on caught fish.
The next 2 days those spinners didn't produce more than 4 fish a day. I tried fly fishing a couple of times, but I never got anything to take. All in all it was a great weekend, and Lemolo Lake continues to confuse me. It seems like I find a trick, lure, or a fly that works great one evening...and then I can't replicate the results for the rest of the trip.
