This is not for the ones that fish Jordanelle all the time, they know a lot more than I do
today in the dark I had a hard time finding the boat ramp
I fished Jordanelle one time this year when Strawberry had Ice on
then today
there is a lot of Kokanee in Jordanelle
it did not take us to long to find them and what setup to use
In the attachment is a map
by 7 AM we got 5 kokanee on the south side by the dam you can see two way points
they stopped biting so had to find some more
where you see the boat there is a lot of kokanee there and bigger
MY speed (thanks to kevinL) set my iTroll to change the speed on my kicker motor from 1.1 to 2. mph
downriggers best was down 35 feet I have four downriggers but if I was stacking one would be 33 and the other one 36 3 feet apart this may change tomorrow.
the Kokanee should have been down 45 feet that is where the 54 deg. water temp was at
I saw fish down there but, could not get them to bite.
also saw them at 24' could not get them to bite
every dodger had green on it, one orange squid with a orange spinner.
and another Glow In The Dark White & Yellow Skirt w/Orange Splatter w/Silver Flake with spinner
so using two orange squids
two squids (5CM UV Purple and Pink w/Silver Flake Mini Hoochie with glow spinner
they call it Dr Death Mini Hoochie it is a good one it works at strawberry to
I had one set up that missed at least 10 kokanee it was driving me nuts
would keep sharping the hooks. looking at the way I tied the hooks one is 90 deg. off from the other one, will retie and see what that does.
any way fun day we did not see the sun that is why the glow stuff worked so good today
