It is good to hear one more time that the kokanee are hitting so great. I am in the same boat as you are when it comes to the big lakers. You can catch as many pups as kokanee at the Gorge but you really have to know what you are doing for the huge ones.
If it is any help, I talked to a guy that lives close to Mtn. View, Wyoming when I was last at the Gorge. He said that he got a good twenty pounder in the area you fished in about 80 foot. He was using 6-8 inch white and gray tube jigs. He got the bite really yearly in the morning. The next day, he said he only got a single bite, no Macks.
