    Poll: I think the reason the Kokanee fishing is so good...

    I think the reason the Kokanee fishing is so good on the Gorge is because of the 3 fish limit. Even though it is a put and take fisherie, there is a natural spawn that keeps populations at this...

    I think humminbird fishfinders are not as good as Lowrance. Never had this problem with my HDS 7.

    I just purchased a humminbird helix 10 and I have to say I am disappointed with it. I also have a hard time seeing my downrigger balls or my jig when I'm jigging for lake trout. The zoom feature...

    Don, I would not put any scents on my gear. The stuff may or may not help you catch fish, but it will get all over your dodgers, squids and everything else. It is hard to remove. I have thrown out my...

    I know the 3 fish limit sounds restrictive but that limit is why Flaming Gorge is the best Kokanee fishery in the west if not the USA. It has been unusually slow lately but there are times when it's...

    I didn't think that was skunk cliffs. I have the Ray Johnson map, and I thought that's where they were. Someone told me where I was fishing was skunk cliffs, so I just went with it.
