It was a tough morning on American for me. Skiers were on the water at 0530, one of them came within 20 yards of me. Not very nice... Anyway I threw everything I had at them today( the fish not the skier) and only had one rainbow to the boat and a couple drive-byes . I found an awesome snag 30' down in 86' of water. Wtf? Not sure what that was but it was the best take down I had all morning. Every time I think I have a pattern going for this lake it throws me a curve ball and keeps me guessing. I suppose that's why I keep coming back, the thrill of the hunt.

the randomness just creates a stringer drive for the reward, basic reward theory, ie Pavlovs dogs. That's why we say kokanee is addictive

Psychology is one of my least favorite subjects, but your right.

I've only pulled 4 Koke's out of there this year (all over 15"). Its been a tough year for most fisherpeople on American for Kokanee. I wish LPD would enforce laws on the lake then maybe the clowns will settle down. The one and only time I saw LPD out on the water everybody was acting like Johnny Citizen and not being idiots. I'm hitting Alder tomorrow, I'll settle for some 10"ers at this point.
