Rod, we launched up top the previous trip and it was really steep and so I angled my launch to make it less steep and then my trailer was canted and if some good Samaritans hadn't helped me I wouldn't have been able to get the boat on straight. Then the pull out was really loose I spun way more than I wanted to. I preferred the first launch over the spring ten to one. Just make sure you look before you start backing, those rocks under water could ruin your day. Most of the Kokes are very silver still so you might still be able to keep them. I got a couple that were really deep bodied and looked like real salmon but they were starting to turn pink so they will be non keepers tomorrow. Anyway good luck and have fun, we were talking about jigging, but didn't have time to do both. Try the cliff on the south side of the dam and a little east, that's where I was graphing the browns in heaviest numbers. However, I didn't check, but the Kokes might be starting to stage up towards the inlet. Fishing was a lot slower by the dam than it had been, maybe the fish are moving towards the spawning grounds??? Later J
