    Default Last trip of the 2017 season for me

    So, my last trip to the Gorge for the summer is in the books. Numbers were hard to come by but we made up for it in quality and weight on the last day.

    The old one fish hits 2 lures trick:


    I played fishing guide for my daughter's boyfriend and his best friend. I figured beginners luck and being Koke virgins was bound to be a good sign for the day.











    One of my home made spinners was the most consistent lure for the trip. It was a gold and silver spinner. The most popular depth for fish that would bite was 80'. There were a few higher and a few lower but 80 was the number.

    good looking Kokanees and thanks for the report.
    I can't tell where you were at, if you don't want to post, PM me.
    I have not fished FG sense I saw you last around the 24th
    I'm going up Tue and Wed. taking a guy, we have been trying to get together with for over a year. he does not know a lot about fishing for Kokes
    I was thinking about going to Breeze Hill. to start. and if the wind does not come up go after big lakers in the afternoon.

    Robert,
    It has been very slow everywhere up there lately. I fished close, Rawlins, Pipeline and the canyon.

    Read bottom line in the post. 80' was most productive depth.

    You did much better than we did, maybe we weren't deep enough though, only managed 2 kokes and 9 macs over 2 days. I was so frustrated I almost considering selling the boat!! Time to switch gears though and start chasing some elk.
