sunday 1/28/18
went out sunday, and fished from 2 to 515. Landed 2 trout and 2 kokes. Super windy, made it hard to keep a good speed. Trout were at 15 feet, and the kokes were at 8 ft. Everything is still pretty spread out, not much action on the fish finder. Water was 38*

On the east side of gooseneck bay. At the end of the rock wall right be for that big Sandy point that shoots out. We caught all the fish going back and fourth down that rock wall. Turning around off that sand point

Spring Shores Launch open?
Hoping to take the boat out on Tue for the first time this year. Is the launch ramp at Spring Shores usable, or do we still need to launch by the dam?

Yes Spring Shores ramp is useable even a couple of docks in the water. Good luck up there!

Message board acting strange
Has anyone noticed any irregularities in the board lately. I don't see the newest posts until I log in. Once I log in it reacts normally, but until I do, I don't get to see the complete thread. and it happens on all the threads. Just wondering.....

Same here. It’s been that way for over a month for me. Unless I’m logged in I don’t see the last post in a thread....it’s there, but there’s no text.
great boat ride, great fishing, catching not so much
I launched at Spring Shores, had a slow boat ride for about 4 hours, and decided to come home. Not a single tap. I fished east of the ramp and then went back down the reservoir a little beyond the heli pad.

Hmmm..... That's disappointing to hear Physion. Hopefully this isn't the "off year" for Kokes on Lucky Peak, but it's still early. I was going to give LP a try sometime next week, but now I may head up to Arrowrock. I prefer fishing Arrowrock over LP because the boat traffic is is much lower there. The road there is just a pain in the butt, though. Seems like the road is mostly in rough shape. I can deal with that, but it seems it like it is always dusty or muddy.....which means a lot more work cleaning up when I pull into the driveway. I'll post a report when I go.

One of the guys I ran into at LP on saturday said that he thought the bite was off because they had raised the water quite a bit. I have seen water level changes do that in the past.
Water level
I use this site to track water levels on Lucky Peak. You can also get to other reservoirs from this site.
https://www.usbr.gov/pn/hydromet/ra...cky Peak Reservoir&ylabel=Reservoir Elevation
If the site is correct, Lucky Peak has dropped less than 3 inches since Mar. 5. I don't think that would have much affect on the fishing.
