Went fishing from 6:30 to 9:30 on Lake Sammamish trolling on the south side of the lake for cutthroat trout with 4/0 dodgers and wedding rings with nightcrawlers. I had the downrigger set at 30 ft and my fishing partner was 5 colors out on the leaded line. In total two kokanee (safely released), one cutthroat, and 2 squawfish were caught. I trolled mostly at 3 speed on my electric motor, no clue what that would be in mph. I just wanted to check whether or not what I caught was in fact a kokanee, because after looking at the picture more and more, the more I think they were cutthroats. Also, is the squawfish a sucker (sorry for the bad pictures)? Thanks for any help!
