I went a bit farther from Edmonton last weekend, to McLeod Lake in the Carson-Pegasus Provincial Park. The lake has a seawall with park benches on it from which you can fish in comfort. I only got one rainbow (although a decent 14-incher), but some guys around me were popping (mostly smaller) fish out of the water like crazy. I was using shrimp, which didn't seem to be too popular with trout in that lake. The other guys were using Powerbait floating eggs dipped in that scented gooey stuff. Unfortunately, I only had a limited supply of Powerbait nuggets with me...Oh well...
