Hello, I got sick of shaking off all those NPM's myself up in Arrowrock. But you're right - there are some piggies in there. Wallowa has to be the new mecca though - back to back U.S. records with the world record in the cross hairs. Not that far a drive for the LP faithful. Mike, koke...

I had a hunch We should have been out there instead of hiking - sometimes you gotta keep the better half happy. I hate hiking. Here's a wierd little list of what they have tried to plant in LP in the last decade or so: Coho, Fall Chinook, Lake Trout, Smallmouth (Ditch Pickles) and Cutthroat...

Guess crappie was a longshot. I don't know Mike. I graph a lot of stuff hanging just off bottom all over that res. and we spend half the day wondering what it is. What would hang at that depth and suspend off bottom like that? If memory serves, F&G has tried planting Chinook in there and...

Maybe I'll hang on to the Kok-a-nuts for another year. We hit Lucky Peak Friday morning. Fished from about 5:45 too 9 a.m. We picked up one 17', a 16' and about a half dozen in that 11-12' range on squid/flashers and pop gear w/ wedding rings. The seventeen's jaw was kyped and he was...

Most were hooked on "medium sized" pop gear with a silver bladed wedding ring, double shoe pegged with Pautzke's Gel Krill. This is the gear we had on the first two hours of daylight and did well. When things slowed a bit, I started mixing things up and experimenting like I usually do (Purple...

We hit LP at first light Sunday morning off Spring Shores and did really well until about 8:30. Found a really nice concentration of fish but I guess the net was coming up too often and enough boats horned in and they dispersed. We moved further down toward the dam and found another little pod...

Thanks for that report. Might have to get up there. We fished Anderson last weekend and had a field day. Didn't get any over 13' but man, that Reservoir is just full of 12-13' kokes. They wouldn't touch my Dodger/Squid set ups on a downrigger but my gal was just killing them on a lead line &...

Regarding Hoolee 99's comment: LP in years past has been a lot more predictable as far as the depth you could find them at and the areas they could be found this time of year. In 2008, I fished the 1/3 of the reservoir near the dam and had about 5 spots I could regularly find kokes in day in...

I'm glad I'm not the only one having a hard time dialing in these LP kokes lately - I'm going through vast areas of LP and graphing no kokes and when I do they are scattered throughout the water column. Next time, I'm taking my neighbor and joining forces with two 2-pole permits and double...

Thanks for that report BB 79 - I fished Lucky Peak Friday, Sat. and the first two hours or so Sunday morning and was wishing I had gone to Strike for crappie. Doesn't sound like Strike is red hot either. We finally picked up a couple of decent Kokes really early this morning at 20 ft. on red...

another Vandal Thanks Kodiak, That's funny, I'm a Vandal too '(94). We are heading up to LP this evening and hope to hit it Sat. morning too. Anybody have any word about what is shut down with that Ironman 70.3 Race? I'm assuming we'll have to launch out of Spring Shores instead of the dam...

jump in I just registered to this sight and I'm really stoked to see there are people who are as nuts about local kokanee as me out there. This is a late report but my gal and I were out Sunday evening and couldn't find any fish around the dam so we moved about half-way down the Res. towards...

how to post? I'm glad I found this forum. I live in Boise and have been fishing Lucky Peak quite a bit the last few years. We're heading up tonight for a few hours of kokanee fishing. How do you post a report or comment without replying to a thread? Have been springer fishing pretty hard...
