However enjoy fishing for just about anything. I have fished alaska, Florida, Louisiana,Maryland, The caribbean, Atlantic, Pacific and all the western united states. My all time favorite is any place in Wyoming where I can fish. I spent alot of time Growing up in the cowboy state and have grown pretty fond of it. Would move there in a heart beat if the oppertunity arose.

Hi Fellow Koke Heads,

My name is Craig Lederman, I live in Murray and work for EDS as a software engineer. I am one of the few techies that enjoys the outdoor (both hunting & fishing) - I grew up on the Columbia river fishing trout, sturgeon, and steelhead. I ended going to school at University of Montana in Missoula and fished most streams & rivers within 100 miles of Missoula - I also elk & deer hunted as musch as I could. After moving to Murray and finally being able to afford a boat I purchased my Lund and have been trolling ever since. I have fished the Gorge for about 5 years and really started catching kokanee about 3 years ago. I finally ended up catching some big ones 2 years ago and really enjoy eating them on the BBQ cook on a cedar plank. I look forward to using this site to share ideas because I have been trying several methods that I have never shared and have been sucessful using.
 
My name is Tim Anson,I live in Green River Wyo,and I'm very blessed to have the gorge in my backyard. Even tho I have fished the gorge for over 20years,I never got serious about kokanne until about 5 years ago. Now it has become a passion,as I rarely target any other type of fish. Because of this passion,I have been lucky enough to meet some great people,that have enriched my life as well as my fishing.

I came from the Northern Flathead Valley in Montana. I've fished for Kokanee pretty much my whole life. There are numerous waters in the Big Sky state that have this great Salmon. Second to Koke fishing, I'd have to list the Bull Trout, Brown, & Rainbow, and of course the LM and SM Bass, and Northern Pike are also fun to play with.

Kody Iverson, Clearfield Utah, Facilities Support for UTA. i am 24 and have only had the oportunity to fish the surrounding states, except for 1 trip to cancun this year for sailfish and tuna. I enjoy kokanee fishing the most because back when i was a little kid me and dad would go up to porquipine ice fishing in our 2 wheel drive old beat up chev and plow our way up the snow covered dam just to go catch kokanee, back then you could keep alot and i remember bringing home buckets full of em, I think that imprinted them in my head.( or probably imprinted in my head cause i had to clean all of them) I like these fish especially now because as a troller, you never know when you are gonna hit a school and the all hell breaks loose on the deck with a double or triple hook up (yet to experience the quadruple)plus kokanne give up a good fight all the way till the end. I have only had the oportunity to fish for them from a boat for the last 5 years so not as knowledged as i would like to be but hey its fishing once you run out of skill you always have the 80% luck to rely on right??????????
 
Hello Everyone, My name is Casey Humes, I grew up in Fort Bridger Wyoming! I can honestly say i have caught more Kokanee and any other species of fish on this earth. However i seem to be stuck in Pleasant Grove Managing a Lansing Building Products warehouse. So if anyone needs anything for the exterior of their home i am there hookup. Look forward to meeting all of you.

I am Wally Hale, I live in Mtn.View, Wyoming. I work in the oil and gas field on the north slope of the uintas. I also like to hunt especially bowhunting elk. I have also been a member of the fire department for 19 years and am now the Assistant Chief which keeps me busy. Alaska is the only distant place i've fished, with the gorge only 45 min. away it's hard to go anywhere else.

For those who don't know, I am Brett Kidder. I've been fishing kokes for about 5 years now and I've enjoyed learning all I can about them. I've seen my success rates go way up, and I owe much of that to many of you here. I've also enjoyed helping others learn about these fish and how to catch them. Kokes are a lot of fun and I look forward to participating here with you guys!
 
Hello All! My name is Janel and like you all I love to fish. I live in Roy Ut and work out at HAFB! Kokes are my fav to fish and for the first time ever I will be doing alot of solo fishing for them this year :confused: so im looking for all the tips I can get guys!!
 
Hi,

My name is Larry Rupp and I don't live anywhere near you guys! I live in Auburn, WA, and I've just discovered kokanee fishing this year. We have a lot of lakes around here that have kokanee, some with kokes over 20 inches. My best to date is hovering around 13", but I'm hoping to break that soon.

I am new to boats, new to downriggers, and new to kokes, so I am always looking and reading for new info and new tactics. Maybe one day I'll make it out to Flaming Gorge and then all this lake-specific info will come in very handy!

Tight lines,

larry
