    When staying at Norfolk Lake did take a couple of trips on White River which were incredible as far as numbers of trout and you can rent a boat easily enough. Norfolk itself is an underutilized lake as far as numbers of folks who are on it. Was there fourth of july one year and there was literally not even a dozen boats on the water! Few folks on the White where they have taken some huge browns there as well and it's a ketch and Keep section so you end up with your limits of trout. The crappie, bass and especially the striper fishing at daylight where you stand poised with your silver spoons looking for some bait balls being smashed by the big stripers is a blast and totally different type of fishing.

    Good sized crappie there too.

    GREAT report and story thanks!

    That don't sound bad at all. I live in Oregon and haven't fished for trout in a whole lot of years. Not my favorite to eat but even worse is seemed all I'd ever catch were 8" and 9" planter's and then the limit is five! Last time out was to East Lake, pretty much learned to fish there with my step dad in the late 1940's. Don't recall how big the fish were then but I was really young and a 8" fish would have been a monster! I keep telling myself I have to take a trip to East Lake again one of these days. I ultra light trout! Last trip for trout was there with the ex wife over 20 yrs ago. Caught lot's of fish and threw them all back but did think about keeping a 9 1/4" one! Going there is kinda like a trip backward in my life, way backward

I caught over 400 trout on them my week out there...no line twist at all...and trout do love them. I gave my host 5 of them and that is what he fished with...and he wants more. He was very impressed with them and this is coming from a man who fishes that river darn near every day. The Smith website has a pretty good read about them...here is a link.

    Anyone know how to read a Japanese site in English? I used Google Translate and the result was so poor, it's worthless.

    Google translate is my tool of choice. Depending on what site it can be an exercise in futility to figure out what they are really saying. When you do it long enough you figure out how to read between the lines....but even then it can be tough going.

    I will have to try Chrome browser because, as I said, the results were worthless and I mean just that. Google owns Chrome.
