It's on. April 15 and 16, at The Lodge at Suttle Lake (between Sisters and Sweethome, Oregon). Pick the Friday evening or Saturday session. This class is being taught by Moknots. This is his 4th year teaching the class.
What's the Kokanee Class? 4 hours of fast paced in depth coverage of when and how to catch kokanee using the best techniques for bait fishing, jigging and trolling. For many this is a "spring clinic" that allows them to get themselves, their gear and their boats tuned up before "opening day" (Suttle offers 25 fish per day limits and is open year round). For others, it's a chance to save YEARS in learning the secrets of success.
Friday 5-9pm Special session for repeat attendees and advanced anglers. We'll skip some basics, introduce some new topics, have more discussion and go deeper into some of the mysteries and variables of this fishery. Let me know if you have specific topics you'd like advanced discusion on.
Saturday 1-5pm Standard session, covers all the basics pretty quickly to make time for lots of questions and coverage of "the fine points" that make the difference between "fishing" and "catching".
The Lodge is offering discounted cabins and rooms, and free boat mooring for anyone booking lodging (limited, first come basis). There are also camping options as well as lodging in Sisters. The facility is incredible (see their web site) and they're giving us more room this year! We've had lots of spouses come in the past, who had a great time whether they attended class or not. WARNING: many of those spouses retained more information than them what brung 'em, and outfished their partner on a regular basis after attending. Gals seem to retain more (or doubt less)?
If you are bringing a boat and have open seats you'd like to offer, please say so, either in this thread, or by posting a new one. Fishing is inconsistant at Suttle, so be prepared for anything from dead to red hot.
