I even like his hat....what a net full. Can you imagine that on a set up geared for 1 - 2 lbs fish...what a fight. Thanks for the picture Joe..

I had a friend build me a 3 WT Fly rod blank in to a level wind rod with 13 guides, I put a line counter reel on it, with a Sling blade followed by a Crippler or a ring - oh what a joy. Eight pound...
I put one of my batteries up front along with a 35 # anchor, one more thing I did was move my downrigger and weight amidships. Between those things my 15' alum. runs fairly nice in the water while...
The month of August is the heavy time at this lake, I stick to the south end of the lake myself...not that the main lake isn't wonderful but I am there for another reason - Kokes. Brookies are...
I am rather new here myself, I fish Waldo and Greenpeter for the Kokes. I am a Trout angler at heart but the Kokes are winning me over. You ever try Suttle lake for the Kokes?

I just can't stop looking at it....what a wonderful surprise on a Koke rod. Thanks again for sharing.
Chuck
Well it appears that next year Oregon will finely allow two rods in lakes and res., for a small fee of $15.00 one can float a bobber and toss a spoon towards rising fish - legally. All it took was...
What a great help you have been, radials it is with the nitrogen as an added bonus.

Great fish and wonderful picture...you should be proud that is one magnificent Salmon in any ones book. Congratulations

How does one check the tongue weight, do you weigh it with all your stuff in the boat or just the main stay stuff?
Chuck
How perfect this is, I seem to be burning my tires up one set every 18 months. I run 6 ply bias type with nitrogen gas instead of air, they run cooler and I don't worry about losing air pressure. I...
The judge that made the ruling requested more information from the group against the motors and until they provide this information the judge allowed the use of outboards until that point...so make...
I must admit I have only camped in the south part of the lake (Shadow Bay), I believe it will hold the size motor home you are describing, I don't believe they have full hookups at this camp ground. ...
There is a very healthy population of Kokes and Brookies in this magnificent lake, the sizes average in the high teens for the Females and a bit smaller for the Males. They seem to enjoy a...
Waldo Lake is heating up, for both Kokes and Brookies. Both trolling and jigging have produced fish, the fish are starting to school and are very aggressive; must be very hungry by they hit the...
I too am fairly new to the site, and it is all that they say...very helpful and willing to share there secrets. Be safe on the water and tight lines to you.

Thanks, I can deal with finicky fish but that Algae is a completely differently story. Wickiup brings back some great memories of Koke fishing, the Wickiup sandwich comes to mind.
Chuck
What's up with Wickiup? Not the dreaded Blue Green Algae, please tell me no..

I must admit I was pleasantly surprised to see Waldo Lake on the list, I thought I was the only one who targeted that lake...interesting?

I have a 5 gal. bucket of used lead from a glass shop (about 50 lbs) if you are into making your own weights...the lead is free and I will even throw in the bucket. Let me know, I will PM you...
Something about being in a boat on the water during a lightning storm holding a graphite stick in your hand. I use to be more adventurous in my youth and stick it out as long as possible, seems like...
I treat my shoe peg corn with a few different scents to include sea salt, for some reason the salt seems to attract the fish and helps keep the corn firmer, even after freezing. I also dry my corn...
Nice to see you on the site, does Jennie know your playing over here?
I noticed they changed the name of the Trout forum...interesting...
Chuck
I know this forum is dedicated to Koke's but in my state they have over the past 10 years has been aggressively stocking the rivers above impounds with adult Chinook Salmon and these fish find there...
I had the same reaction...sweet!!! Then after further reading realized that my wife is right I am a pervert - does this mean I am finely a man? Here is what I thought I was going to be seeing in...
