I hit Ririe this evening after work. I fished for about 2 hours. My intention was to find the perch. I started by drilling a ton of holes then I put a rod in shallow and instantly had trout. I then worked the holes with the Vexilar until I found what I thought were perch. I reeled up a fat perch and was proud of myself for hunting them down. That is when things got crazy. The vex screen filled up from 20-30 ft of water. I sent the swedish pimple down and started catching Kokes. I could still see the perch on the bottom, but I could not get down to them without my jig getting wacked by a Kokanee. This went on for an hour. I ended up landing around 30 Kokes. When it was all over the light was going quick but the perch kept biting right up until dark.
I ended up catching 7 trout, 30 Kokanee, and 11 perch. the action was truly awesome. I kept a limit of Kokes and the perch for dinner. Its awesome that we have the two best eating fish in good numbers.
I have to work tomorrow, so good luck to all.
