Had a Great Fathers Day of Kokanee Fishin with Dad at Berryessa yesterday
perfect timing. had a fiery need to get into some of them fatties lately. with report after report coming in and I've been busy. and on Fathers Day to boot - no better timing.
MJCook Whacked em with Limit Stick the day prior and hooked up some good intel.
Same Pattern - marked fish all over, and mostly 34-48', fished those depths and most of the biters came
at 37-40', more specifically mostly 38'
the usual areas
fished mostly off on our own, aside from some passers by.
slow start, 1 fish in the first 1.5 hours, but when we found them it was steady and we finished at 9:45 with limits of mostly a great grade of fish to 18". with a couple juvies in there.
the fatties are fighting like gorge fish - aside from the times I've been there, I've never had kokanee peel line like a few of these did today.
GIRTHY - the fatties are 3+ inches across the back - they look funny coming in with thier nose down just under the surface - a blueish green nerf football hehehe then they say no thanks and peel another 20 yards
Pink/Red/Orange stuff behind a 5.5" Bahama Mama RMT Dodger. All Day.
I ran this stuff...
(forgot to include the Orange Apex that didnt get any love)
Dad ran similar.
