Went out yesterday afternoon. Supersoft lips. I think the hard rain all night had something to do with the water and the bite. However we lost a lot more than we got in the boat, very slow bite.
This report is really not too accurate of the current fishing. Overall, it's better fishing out there for kokanee in Lucky Peak and everywhere else than what I experienced on Wednesday.

Was that you trolling Kokanee cove in the toon?
 
Fished for the first time in 2 yrs. WINDY! Not cold. But very windy.
Oh yeah we found the TOADS and tad poles also.

Anyone been out on Ranch lately. Interested in heading over in a week or two.
 
We're planning to head down friday and stay through the weekend. Either freeman ck or dent. I have not heard much from down there at all. Talked to a friend who nornally fishes it regularly and he has been chasing springers instead (which is probably smart). He fished elk ck a couple times and caught a few but not many. Haven't talked to anyone who has fished it within the last three weeks though.
 
Good luck

Heading for Dent Friday for day trip. Have 4 rigs set up with different weights. I only have a 12' aluminum w/8 horse, so I don't use downriggers. Might as well give it try. I will post any results.
 
Went out this morning for 8:30 - 12. We tried multiple spots but it was very slow and i did not mark very many fish. We had 4 hit and boated one trout. Most disappointed that none of the hits came on the DR I put on last night.
 
fished 5pm-7pm on 5/22, started at the marina and trolled downstream until we got a school to cooperate, had a dozen or so bites and got 4 good fish to the back of the boat and a few lil ones and all got released, they looked to be around 14-15" fish, nothing caught deeper than 10', most of the bites came during quick acceleration and i did my usual accel. / decel. between 1 and 2mph on the gps, dodgers and hoochies and forgot my corn at home but had some berkley gulp maggots on board and they did the trick

lots of folks are fishing below 10' right now but i had 0 bites below 10', once i brought all the gear up to the surface we started nailing them, good luck everyone
 
Hit the resevoir from 7-12 is today. Fished around the dam. We landed 7 kokes and 1, trout. Missed 4-5 more. All were about 14 inches, but good and fat.

Got skunked Friday for the first time ever at Dent. Not many boats out. Last day catching springers on Clearwater is probably why.
