…Good to meet BFTer Bduck at the ramp coming off… :cool:

Escaping the heat of the valley was my thing for the day until I got back home to be reminded why I went in the first place. Strawberry has always been a favorite for that along with some fine kokanee fishing. This day the kokes eluded me. I know I had one when my rod was slammed & got a brief tail dance but a self release squashed my only hope for the day. I did catch about 15 cutts and mostly were some descent size that would match some kokes. Most were in the 18-21" range unfortunately slots. Admittingly a couple did show a feisty fight giving me hope they were kokes. Can’t win them all.
It was also good meeting Jmorfish, until next time time Joe. :)

I’m not seeing the number of fish on my fishfinder at strawberry that I saw this time last year plus the ones that are there do not like to bite.
sometimes you can luck out and find a setup they like that day
