    Are most of the fish still in the 8-9" range? Planning a trip in early August, but not excited to get a bunch of dinks. The difference between an 8" and 10" fish is...

    Koocanusa

    Has anyone been to Koocanusa lately? Thinking about taking the Wife and two babies up for a few days and we have never been there before. I really want them to have a good time.

    Thanks

    I usually run 4+ rods, so, if the fish aren't biting, I try to change one whenever the kids give me a chance. Two babies (seriously, 6 months and 2 years old) in the boat makes for great times and...

    Congratulations! I'm getting excited for hunting season to kick off here, but I guess that will mean I have to put the boat away. Not enough time.
