Had some old friends out from 11 to 3 today. Started trolling at the mouth of Toxaway river and trolled past JOR to 3 rivers before we picked up our first trout, a 24" 5 pound brown that hit a Sutton #61 trolled behind a crankbait about 140' behind the boat. It was only a few minutes later when a 23" 4 pound brown hit a Sutton #29 on a downrigger at 43 feet deep. Not much more action, we went 3 for 4 with a small rainbow on a downrigger with a Sutton #44 at 23 feet and lost another small rainbow. All fish were released to fight again.

Thanks for the report Sam.
We were 3-4 on Friday. Started at Round House about 2:30 and worked down around towers and back without a touch. Trolled up mouth and finally had a nice hit on the free slider pulling a Black Screwball that never hooked up. Took a stocker rainbow by island heading around JOR about 10 minutes later about 6:30. Another stocker and a bass before calling it about 7:15.
Saturday was no better in tournament. Only one stocker rainbow and three bass. Started in 3 Rivers for a couple hours before trolling back towards big water. Three of the fish came in big water as we exited the mouth in about a 30 minute span.
Only 5 fish weighed in at tournament. Most of those came in the mouth.
1st - 3.96
2nd - 3.60 Nick
3rd Tied - 3.14 Nick and Jeff
5th 2.76 Rainbow
