Overtime Fishing @ Green Peter 07/31/2010
If kokanee fishing was a full time job for me, yesterday I would have worked some OVERTIME! I had invited two really good friends from work, Dave & Terri Kunz, to join my wife and me for a day of fishing at Green Peter. The reports haven’t been red hot but I figured I could scratch out a limit or two if I had too. The number I had in my head had been fifty; I should have said twenty five. I never found that lucky combination that was on fire, and something that seemed like a winner would turn off in the blink of an eye. I managed to get my fifty fish but we had to work hard and with only a hand full of doubles and triples I had plenty of time to talk and eat good food with great company. A blue UV Shasta Tackle Sling Blade mixed with a Watermelon Apex, was my only consistent combination, and I was using that combo in 60 feet of water, at 1.5 mph. I fished most of the lake, and the only place I saw really big numbers was close to the dam. The fish are BIG, and FAT with lots of fight, and even though that was the best day of fishing that my friends have ever had, I wish I could have found a more productive spot in the lake.
