2012 Lucky Peak Fishing Thread

I have...

thanks for posting recently Physion and bayhorse, that's great that they're still biting, I've never fished lucky peak after November or before April but one of these years I'm going to and I'll see if I can catch fish every month for 12 months straight, anyone ever tried that before?

I did it last year...there were a few times on AR that got a little sketchy...but we pretty much always got something from the effort...I remember my buddy and I had to crawl thru the ice fields with one driving and the other sitting up on the nose of the boat breaking ice with his boots to clear a path to open water but still awesome fun...Love Idaho for that...fishing year round is pretty sweet. Caught my first Bull trout in November last winter too...

that's good to hear, I'd love to hook into a big bull trout on lucky peak and tell it to leave the kokanee and rainbows alone and to eat only pikeminnows 101ok101

talked with my buddy the other day about fish biting well at lucky peak still, 2 people fishing and they each picked up a limit in less than 3 hrs, all koks were between 14" and 16" and caught on the surface before 12pm, typical speeds and typical gear, 2 rods running different color combos of hoochies/dodgers and the other rod running silver pop-gear and a pink wedding ring, lures tipped with shoepeg corn and placed onto the hooks with c-c-cc-cold fingers

my buddy says he is a real kokanee fisherman worthy12...but his wife also gets more angry with him than my wife gets with me laugh hyst

Well, it sure sounds tempting, at least until you walk outside in the cold temps made colder by the 25 mph winds. If the wind ever lets up, I am tempted to head up there.......for no other reason than to prove that, like your friend, I am a real kokanee fisherman!!!!! Mike

the wind is definitely miserable up there right now, his boat was moving around 3mph just drifting with the wind, with most kickers on the side of the transom it does make for interesting trolling, I've decided winter kokanee fishing isn't for me this year
