Saturday “ Nelle”

[2knots]

I was there 
friday same place did not see alot of fish had 4 lines out 3 koke stuff and one floating rapala  line out about 100 feet
the rapala was  best had 6 rainbows by 10 AM it was to slow so we moved and got into a lot of fish schools that I was thinking was kokanee but we only got one koke.  they were all on top and I could only see them with the live scope fishfinder.   we stated catching rainbows every 5 min.
had to leave at 12 they were still biting when we pulled the lines in to go we had 3 fish on.   they were in just a small area we just keep on them

Yea the north end where we were was real quite comped to the previous trip with you, did find some down toward the point heading to the dam

Meet up with Eylayo at 5am near Hill AFB and headed up to Jordenelle to meet Ru2u and see if we could find the elusive kokes. On the way up Obi called and said he had changed plans as was on his way also. The 3 of us in my boat launched and started setting gear just outside the buoys at about 6:20 and headed north, 2 small bows came to the boat pretty quick and then did a lot of searching, wasn’t until 9:30ish when we got the next nontarget volunteer. Bows and 1 brown was all we we got with 10-15th on the wire being the best but did pick up a bow at 45’ on an apex when we decided to chase some marks. The planner boards produced most of the fish using clip on 1oz weights set back 40’ from the boards. Pink mini hoochies with small 00 blades seemed to be the best. Weather was dead calm until around 10 when a breeze started and by noon the forecasted gusts had arrived but they would kick up for a bit and then drop so we were able to fish until 1:30/2 o’clock. Shawn and Richard were great to fish with and did a lot of chatting during the slow times, looking forward to trips with both again, thanks for a great day
Final count 7 bows (double at the end)
Water temp was 41.7




 and 1 brown

Good seeing you guys out there, you guys did a lot better than us, I had planned on fishing Willard with SmittyT and his son but after fishing Willard by myself on Friday and marking up my first skunk of the year I suggested that we should go to Jordanelle where I was pretty confident that we could catch Bows while trying for Kokanees based on my previous trips there this year. Pride got the best of me and I marked up my second skunk in as many days, my theory is the fishing god's where punishing me for drinking a banana protein drink on the way to Willard Friday ;-)

Great seeing you out there also, bummer the fish didn’t cooperate with “plan B”, next time
