Both you guys kick my butt!!! But I think the weather kicked all are's on Monday!!! Glad to see you guys out there, in the rain and wind, giving it a go!!! Couldn't tell from this pic I took of your boat TrollNFisher around 6:30am that the weather turned for the worst!!! Tough conditions, I stayed out after I dropped of Ret Sgt Maj with his 4 fish around 11:30am to finish out my limit right before you left kokanee_slayer!!! Tough conditions no doubt, as TrollNFisher said just got lucky!!!

Joe nice pic thanks I saved it. You hit it on the head tough conditions I got a second wind when I popped open my thermos of coffee a couple of times. What's bad is I checked the weather the night before and it didn't look that bad, boy that weather man had it wrong and needs to relook his career field. Look forward to seeing you all again this weekend sometime. I also hear riffe calling me we will see.
 
Took Joe's (Winterun) advice and fished 70+ water. Trolled along the north side, east of County Park launch. The higher baro pressure is bringing the kokes up above 50 feet. Marked most from 30' to 45' today. Pulled a 17" and a 12" from 38' in 75 ' of water using a homemade hoochie with a Double D dodger.

I read an article somewhere about tying #8 tandem hooks with about a half hook length overlap and hiding the hooks up inside a mini hoochie body (I used two glow beads for spacers above the hooks). The theory was that both smaller hooks will be hit at once and the odds are good that both hooks may stick. Well, it worked. Both my kokes were double hooked inside the mouth. The 17"er did two tailwalks and never came loose!

Me and my son fished on am 1 Jun we landed 5 kokes all nice size 12-14 inches but fat. No big fish yesterday but it was a great morning of fishing and trolling along. Trolling speed was 1.2-1.4 fish were 30-45 foot down.
 
Well finally made it out today for the first time in over a month. Man i needed that, only managed one in the boat and also lost two more. The bite seemed to be early in the morning and was mostly done by 8-9ish came on both pink and green. Off to alder tomorrow.

Caught these Kokanee Footballs between 5:00 and 6:15 A/M on the East side of Silcox Island in 70 to 80ft of water using Pink Minihoochies behind Bahamamama Dodgers 32 to 42ft down on the wire and 29 pulls back. Time to crank up the "Ole Smoker" and take a batch into my crew at work.
