I will just use BSflies segway into my report. I was fishing with my family off of the boat ramp at the crack of dawn. We did not have a single bite until 9:30 A.M. Then the Kokanee were everywhere and we caught around 20 in twenty minutes or so. Then they were gone as quickly as they had come. We decided that it would be pressing our luck to wait for the school to come back through so we headed out to the boundary where BSflies was fishing. We decided not to crowd BSflies so we went to the opposite shore from him on the East side. Like BSflies we set up in between 8 and 45 ft of water. We caught the fish closer to 8 feet earlier in the day and around 20 ft later in the day. The fish were beautiful in the 15"-16" size range. We actually landed 14 cutts and had that many again on the line at one time or another.
As the day progressed we figured out that the fish were keying in on white paddle bugs sometimes it took a bit of subtle jigging to get the fish to strike. Overall it was a wonderful day and I have a major sunburn to show for it. Good Luck Ya'll.
