$$ REWARD! Lost: One 10 lb Orange downrigger ball. Last seen in the vicinity of Arrowrock Dam area; rock outcropping on the road side. Large flashers attached.
 
Dude...that sucks! Probably be watching for it when they drop the water this fall...I need a new ball anyway...LOL...just kidding...I fish up there alot so I"ll keep an eye out
 
Fished Saturday the 19th by the boat launch landed 15 kokes all about 16" also 2 trout and only 4 squaws. Sunday only caught one trout, one baby koke, sent him back to grow, and 2 squaws.
 
Sunday 5/20

Lucky Peak Water Temp on Sunday 5/20 57F. Hooked one that went straight up like a rocket out of the water twice and threw the hook. Pink Hoochie and worm.
 
Hey tuff maybe you should go with the boys instead of the girls next time. I know of a guy who is wanting to go maybe you should give him a call.
 
Does anyone know if they have a dock in at the boat ramp? Last time I was there it was just a ramp. Any recent news at Arrowrock? thanks.
 
Fished Arrowrock saturday with my son and his two friends. Got on the water about 9 and quit about 2:30. We had to work hard for them but we ended up with 15 kokes. The boys farmed a few also. It was a good day of fishing.
 
Nice day at Arrowrock!!

Finally got some kokanee fishing in today after fishing for chinook the last 3 weeks. Made the decision to go to Arrowrock with my good fishing buddy. I haven't fished it since I went in March. I got my boat in the water at 6:15 a.m. and was done fishing at 1:00. I shot straight across from the launch. Marked fish between 25-30 feet. I stacked both downriggers 10 feet apart on both sides. 25' feet and 15' on left side and 28' and 18' on the other. Ran my usual sling blades and homemade hoochie spinners. Pink was the winning color today. We boated a kok within 10 minutes a 17'' keeper. Fishing was a little slow, averaging a fish every 30 minutes. Had multiple double ups and ended the day with a triple up and landed 2 out of the 3. Had 12 fish in the cooler 10 of them at 16-17'' and 2 were just over 18''. Tight lines and good luck everyone!

I thought about fishing there but all the fun boats and jet ski's parked on the beach scared me off.

Went up the reservoir a little more and had similiar results.

When the wind kicked up we were invaded by the folks that were running around by the boat ramp all morning looking to get out of the chop. Good Job. Nice Fish.
 
Thanks Allyn! It was really nice to see just fellow kokanee anglers on the water today. I'll be headed there again next Wednesday and hopefully have the same resultsthumbsup
 
Looks like it's time to head over to Arrowrock.

Those are some very nice fish! 101goodpost101
 
Same report here as well with two limits of Kokanee in the boat by 2 PM. Averaged 2 fish per hour with multiple fish over 17 inches in length. Great day!

Nice. Those fish look like they could eat most of the fish I've been cathcing at Anderson. Looks like I'm staying closer to home this weekend.
 
After Work on Friday

I am posting my first post and I'm happy to have something to report.
My wife and I went up to Arrowrock today about 4:00p.m. and fished till 8:00 p.m.
We ended up with 7 nice fatties. The largest one was 17 1/2".
Used Kokanee Killers and Wiggle Hoochies at 35ft deep.
It was beautiful on the water this evening.
I am so thankful that my wife is my best fishing buddy.
Thanks for this forum!
God Bless DW
