Wow. Hard to believe it’s June already, especially with the chilly, wet weather we’ve had. There are some good things coming up in June, though. One of them is the opening of Grimes Lake for fishing. Grimes is located just north of the top end of Jameson Lake and is reached by driving through the town of Mansfield. It is loaded with Lahontan cutthroat, and can be terrific. It is a real favorite of fly fishers, but is not restricted to fly fishing only. There is a one-fish limit and selective gear rules apply. I made another trip to Moses Lake to try for walleye. My fishing buddy Rollie Schmitten had never caught a walleye and I was pretty sure I could help him cross this species off his list. There was a late bite, at least I wasn’t able to get any action until after 11 a.m. and we quit at just after on 1 p.m. to avoid getting rained on. In that time we boated five keepers, with one walleye a 22-incher. It took me a while to figure out what color was going to work that day, and when I did the action was pretty steady. We missed at least twice as many fish as we hooked. We were trolling spinners behind bottom bouncers, and found the best action at the north end of the lake.
