American 16 Oct 11

16 Oct 11 started 0650-0830. Fished American this morning with one of the boys the other didn't get up, I beat Kokanee slayer and kokanee-Toni to the boat ramp. Fishing this morning was phenomenal all I can say was WOW! Those kokes were feisty and hard hitting we trolled right around the corner from Russell landing, we landed 10 kokes and 4 lost. All fish were caught at the 12-13 foot mark or free lining out the back this morning. Trolling was 1.2-1.4 a little faster due to the slight breeze. Water temp was 59.4. Here are a few photos of the gear and fish colors right now; the biggest was almost 16 inches. Caught a couple starting to turn meat was still bright orange. Nice talking to Kokanee-Toni and kokanee slayer on the water and at the dock. Toni I’m going to get me some of the colors you use. Thanks

You got your report ahead of me! I was thinking about where I bought those dodgers...might have been Wal-Mart, Sportsco, or Dick's. But it was the beginning of March or April.
It was a good day for catching!

You too have been knocking 'em dead!!! I should have gone out Sunday afternoon with the grandson but he had to go home too early!!! Plus I was a little beat from fishing the Hump on Saturday!

Good Job!

Ya, didn't I read that your arms were to sore to reel in kokanee. You are right for their size they sure do fight. Probably doesn't compare to Kings or Coho though.

Very nice! I remember there was one like that given out at the KFF Family day I didn't get it. I liked how it looked so I bought that one at cabelas about a week later. It definitely works I can guarantee it, I fish 85% of the time with Vance’s dodgers I’m sold on them.
