Sorry for the late report (and following ones - didn't download cameras until tonight)

Fished for kokanee downlake from our condo this morning. It was overcast and cloudy, so I put on a Bloody Mary Wannafish A Lure behind a 50/50 dodger and tipped it with pink Berkley Power Maggots. Second pole had a purple dick nite. The picture shows my setups and additional ones used on a later trip with my daughter. Toni's gear worked very well. I especially like the sickle hooks, as I didn't lose fish at all.

I fished both sides of Rocky Point and took home 7 kokanee up to 12 inches and let 2 or 3 smaller ones go. Nice flat water, a bit of drizzle. Thish seemed to bite best around 1.3-1.4 mph and with lines at 30-35 feet in 50-120 feet of water.

About 10:00 I switched over to lake trout fishing and broke out my jigging rod. Caught and released a couple of 3-4 pounders on Mac Bar before heading in for the day.
