Thanks for the info..With a decent bite midsummer, I assumed it would just get better when they began to stage. Go figure!! Again, thanks for the info. Mike
Anyone tried for kokes the past few days? Been mighty quiet on the site lately!!
The portable dock is in
I've found the Brad's mini cut plug in black and stuffed with oil packed tuna to be a winner. Good luck, and give us a report. Mike
Sure hope you do well. Very few people fishing it. You'd think they would be staging in the narrows area by now. However, with early and late fish now, who knows!? Waiting to hear your report. ...
Fished yesterday (Monday) and was more than slow. Fishing with both long lines and downriggers. Two fish in the morning. Talked to lots of other trollers, and several were still looking for their...
Fish and Game has already addressed this question, and will assure you that the parasites pose no problem whatsoever. Go ahead and enjoy them. Mike
I'd def. go with the 8's. Far less blow back. When we go to the ocean for kings, we switch our 8's for 12's. Mike
Jacksdad,
Any size to the chinook? I was expecting some larger chinooks this summer. Thanks in advance! Mike
Hey Riverrunner,
Talked to a guy who fished LP this week. Knows it as well as anyone. Three of them had one strike all day. Had the downriggers at every depth, plus longlining......nada. I've...
Hey Terek,
If you are asking about LP, rapalas was def. the ticket. We didn't fish Arrowrock. Mike
Went up on Monday. Very "washboardy" in areas. Not a single boat on the water. We fished L P earlier when there was less water than now. Fishing was great for trout, but poor for kokes.
Sure. Smaller Rapalas, both colors we used worked. blue and perch, and no weights. Let out plenty of line. We did best in the narrows. They ignored everything on the downriggers. Fished 10-20 feet,...
Fished LP today, and the action was fast. Several doubles, and strikes about every 5-10 minutes. All trout. The gear dropped on dr's for kokes did not produce. Longlining rapalas was the trick. The...
Good news about the dock. Long (too long?) time coming! See you caught one chinook. Wonder is he is one of the 2017 or 2018 plantings? There should be some larger chinook from the earlier...
good question. should have asked!
Just talked to the Boise National Forest office in Mountain Home, and they informed me that they finally got the money to repair the docks at Curlew this past July. They had to go begging to the...
Thanks, rem. Enjoy all that chinook!! Mike
Nice!! Was he deep? I have caught mine in mid'summer with most at 60 feet on the wire. Betting you were deeper. Mind if I ask which general area of the reservoir? Mike
Larry,
No problem, not even close. To check on ramps, go to this site: https://www.usbr.gov/pn/hydromet/ramps/anderson/anderson.html

Are you sure that, at that depth, it wasn't a chinook? What size was it? In regards to the trout, I seem to do better off the shore than trolling. Don't know why. You catch a lot of incidental...
Looking forward to your report! Good luck. Mike
Interesting. My large chinook was just as pink as the kings I catch at Sekiu every year. Now I'm even more confused!! Mike
Maybe the flavor of them changes when they get to the size where they begin feeding primarily on larger kokes? Just a thought. Mike
