Need a little help, looking for some suggestions.
I am doing a two week Grouse grand slam, Blue, Sage, Dusky, Ptarmigan over two weeks in Sept bouncing in a circle around the state over the first half of the month, but to give my dog breaks (and me too), I will make some stops for fishing, mostly flyfishing. I am no stranger to fishing CO, but most of my experience is in the South Fork area in the south. I have fished a couple creeks feeding into Blue Mesa and fished the Gunnison NP several times, so I am familiar with the area. But I have never fished for Kokanee, nor have I ever caught one. Know nothing about them. It is my understanding they have started the runs up the rivers around the time I will be in CO. So my questions are.

Is above Blue Mesa going to be my BEST option to make a stop for?
Any particular locations I should try?
What flys/lures are most people using during that time?
What other areas of the State will have a similar spawning run that is worth fishing?

Thanks for any help, even if it is just general. I would really like to give Kokanee a shot at least one day on this trip.
