I got to the lake around 4pm and left close to 8pm. I hooked and landed 3 kokanee’s using a new Wittman Z-Ray, the color is salmon roe. Since I lost my other small one I haven’t done as well so I ordered some again from Wittman Lures in Az. The lures they sent said salmon roe but they weren’t the same color as the other big one I have or the one I lost. These new ones were slightly redder. I thought they might have made a mistake so I emailed asking about the color and I got a call back from them. They have a vender that paints them and he went to a store looked at the salmon roe and made it his paint redder. So I took one fishing tonight (yes, I ordered more than one) to see if I get the same result. I casted it out and started to troll and “fish on”. Yes that quick. It jumped and was off. I had tried trolling with a Z-Tiny Troll and wedding ring but without any bites then I switched to the Z-Ray. First fish caught on the Z-Ray was 5:05 pm. The bite died down around 7 and I switched to shrimp on a bait hook and got a rainbow. It was windy and cold-no rain. I was really cold. The water temp was 58 degrees.
