was going to take a granddaughter and great great grandson but something came up so they did not go
so went alone for a one day trip left my house at 2 30 am
went to Lucene put the boat in the water and went north in Wy. about 20 min drive it was light enough to see
sun was just coming up when I got to where I wanted to go, 3 other boats were there.
in 15 min I had 4 kokanee lost one big one at the boat could not net him, so got 3 in the boat that is all you can catch.
biggest was 23 in. all male and turning red.
that was 15 min. of fun and hell almost lost a fishing pole things were going so fast the pole went in the water but the hook got a hold of something in the boat
got the kokanee down 45 and 50 feet using all home made stuff the dodgers had green in them and glow
went back to the Utah side another 20 min drive it was about 7 am.
hoping I would have a good day catching big Lakers but no luck did not see any one catching any
a lot of them on the fishfinder one guy I talked to said he would like to catch one to see what they were.
came home after I got tired of being in the hot sun I think it got up to about 95 deg.
next time I go will need to take a boat load so we can fish for Kokanee longer.
Kokanee fishing at Flaming gorge has been good for me this year it was easy to get limited and not a lot of boats this year
