I fished Lake Stevens for a few hours this morning. The weather was less than perfect but at least it was warm…come on summer! The action was consistent on a mix of kokanee and cutthroat. All fish were exceptionally feisty and went to about 14” I was making use of my two pole endorsement. One rod, lead line at 1 color with dodger and a home brew wedding ring. The second rod was run 40’ behind the downrigger while I chased meter marks to about 70’. It was rigged with a dodger and a kokanee spoon. Through out the day I tipped my offerings with corn, worms and various scents. Final count 30 or 40 fish, with 7 kokanee and 3 cutthroat retained. The water temperature hovered around 50 degrees, I figure a few more days of warm weather and it will be lights out fishing.
