Thanks Donnie for your informationSmall apex’s or anything to imitate salmon fry. Troll around incoming creek mouths. Wap creek area, try all depths from 30 - 100 feet in the area. I’ve only fished south end, plan to be that way early June as well. Some very active and hard fighting bows. Beautiful lake, reminds me of the Island.
Thanks kingblazer I will try both of them ,so far Mabel is beating me up .also bucktails in the early am, right on top with 1 oz of weight 300' back at about 3.3mph. Also Lyman plugs in the 30-100' range at about 2.3-3mph they slay.

How far ahead of the buck tails does the 1oz weight go ?
Thanks a lot kingblazer I will try that next month.have you found fishing the south end of Mabel or the north end where we will be staying better fishing then the other ?I usually put out about 100 - 150' of line then clip a slip weight 1 oz on and go another 150', I also run a 4" chrome apex on top the same way and have had luck that way or down on the rigger at those depths posted above.

Thanks again KingblazerNorth end has always been good for me out at wap creek where it enters into the lake especially good.
Thanks again Kingblazer
Yes great for Rainbows. That area is closed when there is a Chinook opening however. Not sure why?North end has always been good for me out at wap creek where it enters into the lake especially good.
Great time on Mabel lake fished from June 4-11 had great fishing till the big storm came thru on the 8 then things slowed down we caught rainbows and a couple of smaller Lakers ( 2 lb. ) size .great time on the water
Went to smaller apex ,some times behind a ford fender ,other times weighted so it was about 4’below the surface and dragged a fly On top with about 200-300’ behind the boat .lost a big bite on the downrigger only bitewhat did you get em on?
