We fished for kokanee out of Spring Shores yesterday [Sunday] from 0800 to 1400. Plenty of other boats also fishing but didn't see much catching. Fish continue to be scattered and didn't see any big schools on the sonar. Mostly suspended from 20 to 35 ft depth. We threw everything we had at them via downriggers and leadcore lines. No one offering seemed to make a difference on what we caught [3 fish - two 17-inchers and one about 14-inches] since each fish was caught on something different. However, one set up that had 3 separate unsuccessful drivebys was a Mack's Imperial spoon [#000000]fished behind a Macks trolling attractor with large Smiley blades.[/#000000][#000000]
Friends out in another boat did much better, boating 8 [4 in the 16-18 inch range, and the others smaller fish]. Most of their fish caught on lead core vs. downriggers....and a variety of presentations.
This year has not been as productive as last, but its still nice to catch those 15-17 inch fish instead of the dinks that some folks are catching on other waters.
