Hey Monte, Did you go to LED lights or the bulb variety? I was sick and tired with the original bulb setup and did a full LED replacement last year and have never looked back. Kevin

Don't forget Union Valley!... that is a pretty place as well. I do like Loon... only was there once though without boat but would like to get back. Tks for the report.

Great story and pics! Way to slay them in short order.

You can say that again. Just spent the last day and half upgrading the fender mounts and also some bigger fenders. Also discovered the leaf spring bushings on one side were show and one side missing cause the spring to eat into the bolts holding everything together so taking all of this apart...

Yah long story short which is never the case a fender weld broke a month ago on the way home for Berressa... I was able to stop and wire it up till I got home... all is good.... well not exactly... I made the mistake of taking the trailer to a guy 1/4 mile away at his boat shop to fix the weld...

There is a strange boat correlation that I thought about as well now having fished on 3 different boats lately whilst my trailer is waiting parts. I guess it has to be Team Boulton Karma or something. The Hoochie factory was just blessed with a few more tackle buddy's and a Plano 3730 to help...

Yah.. no real mystery in location, around the big island... we were on the back side of it when we took the pictures so technically they were caught behind those bushes, over the hill and other side is the Big Island face. Pink Hoochies did well and also some orange and UV pink and then there...

Great looking Kokes right in your back yard... I'm so jealous! Looks like another good year in the making with some good size already.

And our limit stick for the day....all fish caught behind these bushes. :-)

And yet more Berryessa reports....but this one is two reports in one as I fished 2 days at Berryessa... Sat for the PK derby and Sunday for fun and therapy. On Sat it was a scene directly out of the Deadliest Catch on a derby day with the roughest Kokanee fishing conditions I have ever...

Great post, pics and video to boot! I think if you came on my boat we would have nobody to net and bring in fish as we would both be taking video and pictures of everything and the action. Keep up the good Youtube work! Kevin

Hey W. C. Tks for the report....I was out there too with a friend and we got a nice limit I'll report on in a few minutes. What boat were you in? I was in a white Boulton. Kevin

+ FallRiverGuy + jzell It's a bit of a dilemma when a lake breaks records 4 times within a year period it is definitely going to get some added pressure. The Internet and external coverage in press etc. can definitely play a factor where one decides to go fishing or in Wallowa's case take a...

Hey DWT..... I'll just repeat what you said in terms of the derby not being for the faint of heart.. I'm sure there were gusts to 40MPH at times as it actually whipped up spray from the rollers. We managed to get to the south end of the big island seeking wind refuge but got totally soaked...

Great report Bryon...... Berryessa is really coming alive it appears. Who says you have to get their early!.... apparently not. Kevin

I fished the Kokanee Power derby on Saturday with my friends Khanh and Connie on their boat. It was a slow day for us and quite a few other derby entrants it seemed in trying to get the targeted Kokanee to bite. We were entertained on and off catching some Kings and Trout hanging around at the...

That trip to mecca... aka the Gorge should be coming up soon for you guys I think?

Great catch Froggie and Tortuga... we were there Sunday as well but we missed you apparently as I was with Capt Al on his boat for the day. Those fish are nice this year and a few of ours I swear were acting like Berryessa monsters but they were just feisty fat 14 to 15 inches.

Great job Dave... looks like the custom spinners did the trick. How long a setback were you using on your spinners from the dodgers? Good to hear there are some fish in there since after our recent trip we were all beginning to wonder. Kevin

I think that the fish are so spread in that lake as food is good they have no reason to school up much. I've been an advocate of adding more to the plant as well. There's plenty of water / food for the Kokes and maybe they should cut back on the Kings since there isn't much of a shad...
