    Oh Yeah back in the Kokes!!!! The weather went from blistering hot to rain to thunderstorms(one of which ran us off the lake ) The bite was slow but we ended up with a 5" rockbass,9 kokes 14"-17.5",and two kokes that shook off just beyond the net. Our first one came on a Kokanee Creek Pink Splatter spoon , two more on splatter blade spinners,the rest on a Crow spoon dodger with a hootchie. An awesome day back at it,even though we got there late and had to leave early!

    Great catch! Hoping to be heading back to NC Sunday if TS Debby is not producing a lot of heavy rain as it is now in FL.

    Great day. Y'all are killing me. Looks like this is going to be a good year and I'm not in on it. Odds of me getting up there this yr. are very slim. Keep the posts coming

    Great to see your still lurking out there. The kokes are lucky. One pass with your setup and you probably would have your limit! Got 2 nice ones yesterday. Hoping you can make it up!
