4/10/2016 6:54:00 AMYes, Landlocked cohos. I guess I had Kokanee on the brain while writing this report. All the silvers were 12-14.

4/10/2016 2:52:00 PMI was curious what the extra insides were. Did not seem to be in the meat at all. Just put em in the smoker a few minutes ago.
I never cleaned a fish with this issue before.

4/10/2016 8:07:00 PMHow was the water level of the lake? I want to bring the wife up and try our luck, wondering if I need to bring the bobbers or if we can fish up by the bridge.

4/10/2016 9:33:00 PMPretty low.. You can google water levels. I want to say it was 758.. With 770 being full. Something like that.

4/11/2016 10:29:00 AM12-14" .....What a bummer!!! The majority of the coho's in this lake go on a 3-year cycle. One year they're 12-14, the next year they're 14-16, then the following year the majority of the fish are 16-18"...
Last year, the avg coho I caught was 17"......like 45 of 50 fish through out the year were 17". SOUNDS LIKE THIS YEAR THEY'RE ALL GOING TO BE SMALL.

4/11/2016 12:14:00 PMSince I have a few knowledgable ears. What is with the clipped rainbow I caught? Was this meant to be released in the rivers, but was unable due to the lawsuit?

4/13/2016 6:15:00 PMJust curious....what is a croc? Wait.....I mean the croc you used to catch fish...lol. And did you still tip it with corn?

4/14/2016 2:31:00 PMThanks! Did you use corn on that too? I may have to add something like that to my arsenal. And I read something before about there possibly being steelhead in there but I don't remember why. I'll try to research that again.
