Jordanelle today

We decided to change it up and hit Jordanelle today to chase kokes. We arrived early and were fishing by 630. 1st spot got a koke, a rainbow and lost a big koke at the boat within the 1st 15 min. We thought, oh boy, it’s going to be hot fishing today. Not so much. It went cold fast and we did a lot of searching. We did end up catching a dozen or so rainbows, 8 kokes, (4 small ones that we released), and a splake. We lost a couple of really nice kokes, they just wouldn’t stay hooked with some pretty amazing acrobatics thrown in to flip us the middle fin. Green, orange and pink all caught fish with really no clear preference. We finished at just before noon keeping 4 trout and the 4 kokes. My daughter-in-law loves trout so she took those home.

Power squadron wasn’t too bad, but it was still bumpy later in the morning.

Thanks. They sure are smaller than in previous years.

Nice job Paul, we farmed a few this am that threw the hooks and had 1 break off an apex but I think the dodger hit the line when it went airborne

Way to get after them Paul, those kokes will be some great eats.
