So what is the current status at LP? Is there still ice up towards Spring Shores?
Been pretty slow, but the water is still chilly. By the time you get home, it should start picking up...
I just picked up 2 of the Velocity Blue Rods. After messing around with all their different styles, they fit my plan the best. Talked with Jared for quite a bit before deciding. He definitely has...
How far back from the downrigger are you setting your baits? You misght let more line out to distance your rigs from the boat...just a thought. That way you can mark the fish, and adjust your...
Lots of little kokes. 9" is the standard right now. fish across from Curlew with wedding rings, and make sure you run snubbers...
Super D, we are talking land locked Chinook in Deadwood. Rolling shad is something I have never heard of here, though common in California. Usually dragging flatfish, kwiks, or other lures, or...
Welcome, and thanks for doing what you do. I know you are working for a better quality, sustainable fishery, and I think that is what most of us want...
Pzak, Lake Trout (Mackinaw) live a very long time. In lakes such as Lucky Peak they wold be primarily piscavorous, and could be expected to live 25 to 40 years (with a maximum reported age of 50...
As soon as you legalize snagging in one area, it will become rampant. Heck it already is, and is is illegal.
I think a better plan is for the F&G to utilize volunteers to set up and operate the...
There may still be Macks in Lucky Peak. Found this on the F&G Website...

Historical fish stocking for OTHER TROUT from 1967 through 2013:

I would suspect that this years water situation will HUGELY affect the kokanee at Anderson Ranch. By the end of the year that lake will be very low, and there will be a lot less foor for the kokes. ...
Thanks for the info. I love Priest Lake, but it is a long haul for me...
Is Priest Lake still closed to harvest of Kokanee?
Structure scan works great for showing structure, but it isn't much for showing fish. I fished 4 days with a guy that is very good with one, and he used the fish finder mode more often. It did...
Usually pretty good once the weather cools and the water maggots stop harassing the dedicated fishermen... :)
I believe those would be Lake Trout for the most part...
Went fly fishing for trout and whitefish yesterday evening, and saw a bunch of Kokes swimming by. I had a glo-bug in my fly box so I tried drifting it trough a group of about 10 of them and on the...
Good luck on the salmon in the Snake and Clearwater. Most fish are not fin clipped, so you will catch some, but not many keepers. Steelheading should be prime though.
There are a lot of snaggers. Kokes are pretty tight lipped when they are on a spawning run. I would suggest fishing really early at first light or at last light, as they seem to bite better. Try...
Everything is really late this year. It will be interesting to see how that affects the fish, and when they start to turn.
What size are the Kokes running at Deadwood Ken?
We were in a big black Alumaweld sled with manual downriggers. 4 adults and two kids. Fished down by the dam...
jimbojump,
What boat were you in? We hooked 3 landed 2. Nice fishing till the wind kicked up and made driving the boat a little tough.
At this time of year, most fish are hanging in the surface clutter if you have your fish finder set at the factory settings. Most of the fish we are finding are in the top 5 to 10 feet of the water...
I agree with Idahokanee. I might add that varying your speed and depth this time of year will help you figure out where the active fish are. Once you hook one, try to repeat what you were doing...
