I saw a special on Great Lakes steelhead fishing on WFN and it was very impressive!
 
Hello,

My name is Scott McGowan and I live in Merced, California. I have enjoyed kokanee fishing for the last 10 years and can't get enough of it! These forums have reinforced that I'm not alone! We have fished Shaver, Pedro, Melones and McClure just to name a few and look forward to our return to the Flaming Gorge on June 19th. Great site and look forward to sharing information with you "kokeheads"! thumbsup

Roger Reiser (Bduck) here. I am a refugee from Sacramento, use to work at McClellan AFB. Now I'm at Hill AFB, Ogden, Utah. I work on F16 fighters at Flight Test. I live in Harrisville which borders North Ogden. I have fished in the midwest, upper midwest & some of the southern states. Also fished in the western states. Fished Alaska and marlin in Hawaii. Been fishing for Kokes for 20 yrs on & off. But started targeting them more in the past 6 yrs. Looking to retire from my job this year and turn fishing into a more permanent life. Not a job, not a career, but a life. Been enjoying this forum and picking up on excellent tips even from some of the younger generations. GREAT JOB guys thumbsup Hope to meet alot of you on the lakes.
 
Hi My name is Stan Klagenberg I live in sacramento Ca. retired firefighter from the city of Sacramento, 32 years retired in 1992 my hobbeys wood butcher and fishing I use to hunt but gave that up several years ago when ever I can fish all of the lakes within 150 miles of Sacramento that includes Berryessa, Bullards bar, New Mellonis Folsom Lake, I have fished for Koks for over twenty Years, fish Bullards Bar most of the time I know that lake and how to fish it but last year sometihing happened to the KOKs they just were not catching any of them something happened to them they planted 50,000 in 2008 so maybe it will pick up again this year.

I have all the latest gizmo gadgets to catch the KOKs. It's hard sometimes to figure them out, have all the GPS and Fish finders by Lowrance HD lcx 28c
two electric downriggers Cannons 10's and have really old boat all allunimum.
it was made in texas in the 50's 17' I reworked it last year replaced all the foam, the old foam was getting water logged. I plan to vist the gorge in june or july if a can find someone to share to cost of going there I just find that they get really big KOKS there.

Mean-while I will just have to fish the lakes close to me. Oh by the way Ithumbsup'm 68 years old and have fished for KOKS when they first introduce them to the lakes. Anyway Guys and Gals thats it

Hi Stan Sounds like your boat is one of the old classic. Hope to see you out on the lakes . Post a pic. of it so we know what to look for. As for the gorge trip i'm sure there is someone else that would like to buddy up on the expence , just ask. There is 3 of us going on my boat in july . I can check with some of the other boats going and see if they have an extra seat. JIM
 
Welcome Stan! Great to have you aboard...I'm sure you can teach us a thing or two about what it was like before there was 10,000 different lures to choose from to catch these fish. Looking forward to your reports and posts! And a big welcome to Bduck & Fishon18 also!!thumbsup

Hello, obviously by my handle I like to fish with downriggers. I already know quite a few on the board most of the guys from California do. If you have the addiction you are fishing most of the derbies anyway. I live in the Bay Area which my job keeps me here, unfortunately my closest Kokanee Lake is over two hours away. When I retire I plan on it being 10 minutes.

I fished the Gorge two years ago (last year fuel costs were too high) what an awesome fishery. Do plan on going back this year hopefully. Hopefully, I can contribute something to the Forum.

Hey MrD - Good to see you here. MrD is the KP photographer and has all kinds of fun capturing our moments or lack thereof on the water. Not to mention his awesome generosity off the water with food and drink! thumbsup How many boats do you know that have an on-board fridge?
