It's still 47 degrees on the surface as of last saturday. They are still moving a lot of water out of the upper reservoirs which doesn't help warm the water. However, the forecast calls for temps in the upper 70 to low 80 degree mark by the weekend and snow melt is almost over and water flows...

What is the water temp at arrowrock? When longlining at this time of year is it similar set backs to lucky peak, around 100 feet? Glad to see a few anglers starting to catch more than one or two fish for a day of fishing.

Jimbo jump is right, went to lucky peak on saturday and only hooked up on three kokanee and boating one for 5 hrs of fishing. Water is still 37 degrees and had a lot of wood debree in the water to get caught up on. One reason it may be slow is that I noticed a lot of fish taking bugs on the...

I went to LP on saturday and hooked up on one kokanee that measured 15" and weighted one and a half pounds and caught a trout the same size. It was slow with only one other boat I talked to catching a kokanee of 17". The water is still chilly at 37 degrees and the fish are spread out. Traveled...

Fish On what was the water temp and if you don"t mind asking what part of the lake you caught the fish. Are they still hitting UV dodgers like they did in november?

Should have called me zonkers it sounds like you had a blast. I hooked up on some kamaloop trout out of lucky peak that had flesh almost as red as salmon and tasted great. Water is still not frozen at spring shores as of saturday December 10; we could take my small boat out sometime if you would...

Ken Jones could I ask you what color combos are working for Arrowrock? I've made it up to anderson ranch at pine this week and had good luck with a red double dee flasher and a pearl wiggle hootchie along with fishing with Gary dodgers. I have never fished arrowrock for kokanee but know it can...

Hey Jimbojump Welcome to the site I take it this is your first year kokanee fishing. I'll be glad to go up to lucky peak with you sometime in the near future. It sounds like you may be trolling a little fast for the kokanee; troll around 1.1 to 1.3 mph and remember to do s turns to speed up and...

Is night fishing worth it in the summer months to avoid the daytime water skiing crowd? Some what new to kokanee fishing and never fished at night; I have a collection of glow dodgers and trailers any pointers people are willing to share would be nice.

Hi Idahokanee Idahokanee tryed the natural scents last friday afternoon and didn't get any hits on it. Do you use a combo of both of the scents you were talking about or just one? The 15 inch kokanee I boated had better girth than the larger kokanee I caught earlier in the season. I seemed to...

Hi Two Labs I went out last friday afternoon at springs shores and found large schools of fish holding in the mouth of mores creek arm. There is also fish that show up on the fish finder up at the arrowrock dam area on the left side of the shore from the macks creek area to the safety bouys...

Idahokanee thanks for the info; I was using the same kind of gear and the same depth so it must be the bait scent. I'll give the natural scents a try. Have you ever tryed a black dodger and a black spinners or hoochies trailer around first light? There are times when that set up works well...

Hey Idahokanee was out a spring shores on sunday and caught a couple of kokanee. I noticed you limited and was curious what type of bait and scent you have been using for hooking up on kokanee this year. I have had success with a scent called kick-n-trout sold at cabelas; but I have not had any...

Excaliber what is the recipe you use for your smoked kokanee? I am also new to kokanee fishing and bought a trager pellet smoker a while back but havn't been able to find a brine I like. Tight lines, james

Thanks for the info Kodiak1 and metalheadgene. I'm going to try my new cannon intellitroll system if I go up there and find that fifty four degree water. One last question do you usually catch coho trolling faster as you would trout or do they hit at trolling speeds for kokanee? I read in an...

Can anyone give me advice on catching coho at cascade? When does the season start up there for coho?

hey idahokanee I also was at lucky peak on friday and went home skunked. Hooked up on a few kokanee but couldn't land the fish. Are you using mostly pop gear or dodgers? I ran through every colored dodger in tackle box and didn't find the magic ticket. I guess that why they call it fishing and...

Lucky peak Kokanee Went out on Lucky Peak on the 18th. Caught one 13 inch using a double dee flasher. Water is coming up and fishing is slow.

Hey spoons I believe they are 2x6 and next time I willnananana make sure to include a tape measure. However, I still have the frozen fish in the freezer and would be glad to private message you my address if you think it's a fish story. Once again I would like to thank blueback79 for helping me...

Thanks Blueback I send you the picture.
