Hey guys, I returned the other day from 5 great days of koke fishing at Flaming Gorge. The weather could not have been better, and the fishing was great as well. My grandparents came up, and my uncle brought his boat too. Between the two boats we really nailed the kokanee. It was also good to have so much family there, including neices, nephews, and cousins. We even did some tubing during the heat of the day.
Early was the key to good koke fishing. Best success was before 8 am. After that it slowed down considerably. But, we still picked up a few in the later morning. We were off of the water every day by 10 am. We also fished a few evenings and did pretty good then too. The kokes ranged between 2-4.5 lbs. We fished mostly north of Anvil, but our evening fishing was done in Linwood.
Best rigs continued to be Rocky Mt Tackle dodgers trailed by various lures. The best combo was a pink hyper dodger trailed by a pink uv hoochie. Serpent spoons, RGT's, and Apexes also produced well. But, again, it was the hoochies that dominated. We put a little pro cure on them for better action.
Here are a few pics...
