Water temp down a bit the last couple of days 38 degrees.
Caught 2 kokanee a couple of days ago. Also two big cutthroat. The first I have ever tried for kokanee. Has anyone been fishing Priest?
Marking lots of fish 5 -15 feet deep.

Is Priest Lake still closed to harvest of Kokanee?

I just looked at Idaho fish & game site regs for Panhandle and for Priest Lake this is all it says "Trout limit is 6, no harvest of cutthroat trout"
That would leave me to believe that Kokanee are open with a 15 fish limit.

Pend Oreille Lake on the other hand has this line in it:
"Kokanee limit is 0, catch-and-release"

Priest opened up last year. I plan on hitting it in a few more weeks.

Thanks for the info. I love Priest Lake, but it is a long haul for me...
