wild day at strawberry - liketrolling - 08-29-2019
A good way to end fishing for Kokanee
we start fishing in the dark using 4 poles and downriggers
never had 4 poles out fishing at the same time
we had 16 kokes before the sun came up
all dodgers had some green on. all squids were pink
downriggers down 42 to 35 feet. the boat found the kokes because no one was driving it never looked at the fishfinder did not have time.
then went after cuts that was calm, only one time did we have 2 cuts on at the same time.
no boats by us about 15 in the parking lot.
my body and boat need a rest

Robert you are definitely the Kokanee King!! Great trip!! It is crazy when it is so busy no one drives the boat. Love that. I am dying to get up there one more time. Dang it.
Too much happening with the holiday and such.
Wish I was with you.

Wow that's great action. I think you could drag a bare hook and still fill the box.
I have found a great recipe for smoked salmon spread. I need some more salmon.

Are you really ready to throw in the towel Robert? I don't think so, you'll get 2 days rest and find a watering hole to master for another day. On a serious note you had a great haul, there is 2wks left for kokanee and after seeing your report I'm at a temptation for at least 1 more day on the Berry. I would have done it today if it wasn't for some wire chasing I was doing in my boat. I will be, along with many others, hitting the big blue anytime after Labor Day weekend and when this desert furnace extinguishes.
