Welcome to the site, thanks for signing up. A thirty pound mack is one I'm dreaming of catching some day. Were you fishing from your own boat or with a guide when you caught your 30 lber?. WH2

From my boat,
I've stuck a lot of Mack's up at the gorge [fishin]
I fish up there a lot in the spring and fall,
Chasing the kokanee's & the Mack's
Here is a couple that I've keep.
I release all of the big Mack's now []

Nice looking macks, did you catch them jigging or trolling?
[signature]

Trolling: I've never done very good jigging for them,
Plus I like trolling anyway [fishin]
Fall & spring longlining large plugs in close to shore 10' to 30' of water []
summer downriggers or steel line with at lest 10oz of weigh? stay 5' t0 10' off the bottom,

I've done OK jigging for them at Bear lake but nothing over 5 lbs at the Gorge. I'm with you when it comes to trolling over jigging but I'm still learning how to catch the bigger fish. I also really love the Gorge for it's big kokes. Since this is the intro board I guess we should carry on this conversation by PM. If you don't mind, I've got a few question about how you fish for those big macks close to shore.
