Nice Ricks. I have yet to see big gnarly balls of fish this year.

skipped the chinook fishing. Got a late start and didnt get to the lake until about 08:30 but managed to get 30 out of Dicks Creek before we had to leave. Fish were up and down all day from 16' to 27' depending on wind and clouds. Purple and green dodgers and spinners were the best. As usual I...

Sounds good still! Maybe 'nooks in the morning and kokes later. hmmm...

We had a similar experience at Dicks Creek but I stayed with the down riggers. I just have too much fun with the ultra light tackle. Switched up some things when we would go more than 20 minutes without a bite to try and keep catching but at one point i had three fish flopping in the boat--one...

Maybe see ya there Ricks. This is what we look like now... Well, nevermind. I cant seem to get a pic of the new boat to upload but If i see you I'll wave! lol --Ron

I think i'm going up real early Friday a.m. for a bit and see whats shaking.

Koktilla time Fishingmom. I've about had it with salmon season.

Extreme temperatures force water managers to start Dworshak releases a bit early. There will still be plenty of water for the holiday week. Please anticipate the lake level lowering overnight and adjust your boat accordingly so as to avoid being beached in hth morning.--copied from the COE...

With a jet boat you are basically trolling a big sheet of warped plywood with a sail on it. The slightest wind is going to mess with you because there isnt a keel in the water. You can put a fin on the pump but it wont help the trolling, only the low speed manuevering. For speed I put a...

Heading to Dworshak 6/12 with my daughter for an overnighter. Figured we'd start around Magnus. If you see a green Custom Weld with KFF stickers, a 12 year old girl and a busy dad say Hi!

I absolutely Love 'em!

I got them at Riverview Marina in Lewiston, Id. http://www.boatingfun.com/parts_and_accessories.htm

Dworshak could actually benefit from flushing tens of thousand fish. Theoretically speaking that will mean more food for the ones that didnt go over the wall and that could mean bigger fish. Personally I wouldve been happier had they flushed a hundred of thousand. Upwards of a million kokes in...

I've built two on the RDR76L with micro guides. You wont be disapointed.

Thanks for the reports. Good to hear the bass are still biting with the water on the rise. I wish i knew what why the lake is producing so many small kokanee the past couple years. Something is messing with the natural cycle. There are millions of them scattered the whole length of the...

I think hang gluiding might be a less expensive hobby! It doesnt take long to figure out that building a rod is almost always more costly than buying one off the rack. However, its not nearly as gratifying. Anyway, great Start! Looks like it all went together nicely and I dont see any gobs of...

Skookum, those are the reels I use for salmon and are within anyones budget which is why I own them! Our salmon season is short here in Idaho and I cant justify spending hundreds on reels for just a few weeks of fishing each year. I have yet to lose a river Chinook due to sticky drag or reel...

LilFisher came over last night and installed the rocket launcher that he designed and built. SWEETNESS! Thanks Kevin!thumbsup

The Rainshadow RDR76L makes a top notch koke rod. The great thing about it is that it is limber and flexible with that parabolic curve we want for the downrigger but still has enough backbone to handle big macks, bows, triploids or even steelhead. I built two of them spiral wrapped with micro...

When you say nothing impressive in size are they at least foot longs? I've got the week off and need to take Hailey girl fishing somewhere. Tomorrow is looking good weather wise and was considering Dworshak. Just dont want to spend the day catching 7" fish there when I could go to local lakes...
