I spent the morning on Jordanelle today. Water was 65 to 67 degrees and a dark brown color in the Rock Cliff arm. We put 9 kokanee in the boat between 7:00 and 10:00. Most were caught before 8:30. Green and pink were the best colors.
Several of the kokanee were small but we caught a couple 18" kokanee on a pink Yakima Spin-n-Fish. Pink @ 15 feet, Green @ 20 ft, Spin-n-Fish @ 35 feet, and green hoochie @ 40 feet all morning.
We had a great time until the Power Squadron rolled out. One ballast boat decided that we needed to be their personal whipping boy, running back and forth by us 6 times before I gave up and called it a day.
I don't understand these folks. The lake wasn't busy. There was plenty of space even in the Rock Creek arm. But, for reasons that elude me, the best water to surf was right where my lines were. These boats that throw giant wakes are selfish and ruin lake use for everyone else.
