Back out fishing on my day off. Helped a friend do a demo paddle on the Wavewalk Kayak so didn't start fishing until 10ish. My mission is to try and get a limit of kokanee prior to catching 5 trout. It is still out there as a goal. Just too many trout to make it happen. I tried fishing deep (30 feet) most of the day to try and avoid the trout. Problem was the kokanee were up around 25 feet with the trout. When ever I would raise the down rigger I would get trout. Ultimately I took the limit of trout and only took 3 kokanee. Our church has a "family fishing day" out there this next Sunday (Fish Washington Free Weekend) and I am sure all the kids (and anyone else who wants to fish) will get some great trout action. I will keep trying through the season to see if I can ever get a limit of kokanee before striking out on the trout. NTO Scent spinners in white (seahawk beads), pink (pink and black beads) and black (orange beads) all got fish as I tried to find the magic combo meal. Shoepeg corn and ProCure bloody tuna and garlic was the bait.
Enjoy
