My wife and I hit the Gorge last weekend for two days targeting Kokanee. We launched out of Lucerne but did some traveling. We found fish in the usual spots but struggled getting them to bite. We caught some good ones but really had to work for them. Blue and green squids were hit the most which was a first for me. Most of the fish we caught were at 45-55 feet trolling 1.1-1.4 mph. This year is definitely different from years past as far as catching Kokanee is concerned. I spoke to a few anglers over the weekend that didn't even catch a single one. I feel that I have thrown the book at them as far as scents, colors, depths and speed. Has anyone found the magic bullet for this year?
From all reports, most are saying the same as you, catching is tough this year at both the Gorge and the Berry. On good days people are catching limits but it sure isn't like it's been in years past. Hopefully the catching improves.
