I am a warm guy (use to be a troutaholic growing up on the headwaters of the green and later kept my boat at Buckboard for 6 years) - but I must say...STOP stocking the trout in FG for a little while and stock some shad or other baitfish...that is REALLY what his fishery needs. (Yes, I do have a Biology degree). After the forage is established the Kamloops would be a VERY fun addition as would more smallies...but I would love to see a few pike or ever TIGERS (not of the trout type) (so they are "easy" to control - the way the DWR likes it in Utah).
I am asking this question in all honesty - not to be sarcastic at all - what is the draw to kokes? I have caught many of them at the Gorge and quite a few at Strawberry...they are good eating...but that is the only reason I can see someone targeting these fish - since they do not get very big and do not fight amazing. I sincerely am interested in this take on Kokes - PM me if you would like to let me know further.
By the way - after a strong baitfish population was established think of what that would do to the Browns, Macks, Rainbows - and maybe a few planted Pike or TIGERS!
GOOD TIMES and TIGHT LINES with BIGGER FISH!!
