more kokanee salmon

[bkidder]

You know, with kokanee salmon temperature is very important. If you can find that thermocline you can usually keep your offerings in the koke zone. They feed on plankton and that is where you'll find them. This time of year the thermocline is actually quite high in the water column so you don't even need a downrigger to get them. As of a few weeks ago you had to get into the bays to find water of a suitable temperature. Right now the lake is starting to warm up all over. I got a temperature probe during the winter. Next time I go up, when the temps are high enough at the surface to drive the kokes down, I'm going to use the probe to help me find that zone of proper water temperature. I think this will make it much easier to get on them quick!
