Been braving the cold weather and trying to stay busy......steelheading that is!!! Winterun

I should be free around that time. Count me in, and I'll have room for 1 in the boat, and if we need to get some folks to the lake count me in for 3 passengers in the tow rig. Winterun

Oh man, it's that time of year again isn't it!!! I'll be in booth #463 in the evenings during the week, and all day Saturday and Sunday if anyone wants to talk about fishing, kokanee fishing especially!!! See you folks there, Winterun

Looking forward to a great 2013 season!!!thumbsup Winterun

Thanks Mark! I've been getting out, but it hasn't been all wine and roses'!!! Ha Ha!!! With all this high water, I almost hitched up the boat and headed out to the lake myself!!! Did a little upgrading during the high water myself also. Went to a Gp27 battery, and changed out the remaining wire...

Yeah it has been kinda quiet around here lately!!! So I thought I post up a recent pic. Since we pretty much had very little rain for our early fall salmon fisheries the season on the saltwater was exceptional. But in turn made late fall salmon fishing in the rivers a bit tougher, throw in a few...

OK, I understand your situation! Now I don't use many siwashes for my kokanee rigs but I do for my salmon trolling rigs. For example, my 2 hook hootchie rig I will run a 3/0-4/0 setup. But if I want to run a single point barbless rig, I will run just a straight 3/0 siwash, that will give me...

Super D, To answer your question. Within at least the hook manufacturing industry anyway there is no industrialized standard. The styles can be very similar such as the octopus hook design for example each manufacture has one. I use the Gamakatsu octopus hooks in my kokanee rigs in sizes 4 and 2...

Welcome Lou! Glad to see you stuck with it, and didn't move around too much!!! The VA spot has been a consistant producer over the years! Winterun

Mark, You make it look easy!!! Now what is Toni's # just in case!!!!! Joe

Mark! Both you and Darren have been putting a hurt on the kokes in American as of late!!! Isn't it great to come back to an ole favorite lake to find the big boys!!! Save some for me guys, I'll be out of town the next week, talking with fly fishermen and women. Take it easy, Joe

Thanks for the wake-up text D!!! Glad you found them!!! They are some big kokes aren't they!!! Winterun

Banshee, Sorry guy, I should have responded to your thread last week but I was on vacation. Yes there are some big boys around but only few, and there's plenty of rainbows in the mix also! I got these 2 the day before I left for vacation on a tip from "Stradic" here on the board. There also in...

Hey Tom! No worries!!! I usually give folks the benefit of the doubt, and get ahold of them in a PM or just ask what's up!?! I fish primarily American Lk since it's only 10-12mins away from the house. Since it was not producing as well this past spring, I swithced gears to Summit Lk (which is...

Tom, I noticed that your a bit farther south than I normally fish. So I apologize if my review is not as detailed or insightful as you like. I don't usually read posts from other states as there's too much water out there to try and learn them all. So I can understand why you don't care. My...

Stradic!!! If anyone could find 'em there it would be you!!! Nice looking fish!!! I might have to sneak out there tomorrow morning for a couple of hours!!! See you out there, Winterun

Slayer!! Ha Ha, no catching up is necessary in my book you know that! You do quite well when your on the water wetting a line anyway!!! Yes, salmon season is finally upon us, and after my annual trip for the chinook opener July 1st at Sekiu, it has me wanting more of those thumb burning, line...

smalma, Thanks for breaking down another kokanee fishery. I have to give you credit for sticking it out with your home lake! Since American Lk (15mins away) close to where I live wasn't producing consistantly like it has in past years. It had me scratching my head and wondering what I was doing...

Not too many details other than my favorite lake was only putting out rainbows this year, and my newly found favorite lake has been a gem "this year" and kept me going back for more so far this season!!! See you on the water, Winterun

Thanks K_S!!! But I haven't seen you, your boat or wannafish on the lake since this picture I took of you too. As you can see from my finder pic there's plenty of sea life out there, and Stradic, Ret Sgt Maj, and myself have had some good days all of June and so far this late into July!!! I know...
