Had a chance to get up to Strawberry Tues for a couple of hours to see if I could pick up a few Kokanee. Arrived with my fishing buddy about 7:00a and had lines in Soldier Creek by 7:30a. Water temp was 41.6F. Used two jet divers with dodgers and squids and one line on the down rigger set a 30'. Started at the entrance to the Narrows and got the first one, a 3 pounder in just minutes. Got that one in and hit a double. Things slowed down for a while and then picked up #4, another 20", 3 pounder just inside the narrows. Wind started gusting and we had to get back before noon so we pulled in the rods and headed for home about 11:00a. These were all beautiful, fat Kokes! My only concern was that I didn't see many on sonar. Hoping this is going to be another great Koke year at Strawberry. Here's some pics of my buddy with the fish ...
