by DOUG BUSEY / Carson Now
A few reports of anglers getting out early and trolling a dodger and a live minnow along the Meeks Bay drop-offs. Some have had success jigging off the rocky areas by the Camp Richardson area. I spoke to a couple of guides this week. They have not been able to get out due to the weather.
