Started out of Meredith town docks a little before 6am, trolled from there to the weirs throwing every color I had from 5ft down to 25ft down without a hit. Left the weirs after a couple circles and trolled to the light house without a hit. Finally picked up a good salmon right off spindle point in about 11 feet of water, after 4 good jumps he shook free, top gun #61 orange. Caught a smallmouth right after that and called it a day. Fishing Squam next weekend

I fished a couple hours today in the brutal wind and white caps. Only saw 3 other boats- Picked up a nice 3+ smallie on a trolled shiner in 12 FOW. I tried various hardware on the other rod at 2 and 3 colors without a taker although speed was an issue with the wind. I was marking fish throughout the water column. Glad to see some great reports- thanks
