Paul Kneeland of The Fish Sniffer shows off a pair of 4 1 \ 2 pound Eagle Lake Rainbows he caught in September . Eagle Lake is in great shape this year , with boat launching no problem and the lake producing some of the biggest , fattest rainbows seen in many years ! These two fat fish were caught in the South Basin amid huge swarms of baitfish on white Hot Ticket and Thomas Buoyant spoons at 20 to 30 feet deep in 40 feet of water . The fishing at Eagle Lake will only get better as temperatures cool and and the trout feed heavily before winter . Photo by John Brassfield , Trucksmart Stores
