I went to Ririe today for a few hours in the evening and didn't do too terrible. I ended up landing 5 small smallmouth bass. I was fishing around the boatdock...
I did see a fairly large kokanee swim pass me underneath the dock. He was in his full spawning colors. He was BRIGHT red with a very green head. It was the first time I'd seen a kokanee in spawning colors.
Does anybody know if more kokanee will tend to get closer to the dock as the season moves along?
Also, what should I throw at them to try to get them to hit? I have NEVER caught a koke, and am eager to catch one in it's full spawning colors! It would make for a great picture!
ANY help would be appriciated!
