Didn't get a text...maybe you sent it to my land line? and that's voice only..text (cell) is the 385-499-xxxx number, which you should have...All my kokes were deeper..33' early, then 40ish...Guess we should have by-passed RP last week and came here, but you never know if we're not trying something different once in awhile...This was probably my last trip/report on Jordanelle for the year, as those males (especially) were turning..and it won't be long for the flesh to start deteriorating...if you're simply there for 'catch and release' at this time of the season, we all need to realize that it's more like 'catch and release and kill', because of the warmer surface temps (72/73) and because their bodies are in early spawning mode...IMO, you could ethically harvest a few this next week yet, but then I think we should not be targeting them after that, and just let them try to do their thing, and maybe we'd be helping to protect the resource for future years...JMO, of course...There are some nice rainbows there, mostly in the 10 to 20 ft depth...
