This report is for Friday and Saturday. I cant give individual ratings, but friday was probably a 2 and saturday a 4.
Friday we slep in and hit the water around 10:30. We spent a long time locating the biting kokanee and didnt manage to put one in the boat until almost 2pm. After that we got 2 more within an hour, but it was time for us to leave.
Saturday morning we hit the water a around 6:45 and started out slow with just 1 kokanee in the first hour. We picked up and headed to where we found them the day before and were rewarded with 5 more kokanee and several lost. Had to be back to the launch by 10am, but had we stayed i think we would have had our first limit of the year i think.
Hard to give a favorite color or presentation aswe tried 4-5 setups and none of them stood out above the rest, we got hits on orange, green, pink and blue. Hoochies, wedding ring, and kokanee chaos lures behind several different flashers. Seems like you just have to find the active schools that are waking up out there.
