Went trolling with a rod just under surface and another about 17'. Spent about 4 hours catching small Crappie and Kokanee which I put back but my girlfriend (who was at 17') pulled this out at the end around 4pm.

17" Koke!

Had to use a 1oz. Trolling weight about 100' to get down because I have no downrigger...

It was cold cloudy and even rained on us at times.

Very slow day I thought

No Rainbows in Alder. Just Cutthroat. And they are good eating. Alder also had a demise in kokanee like Clear Lake did. Hopefully next year will be good again.

Kokes don't have spots along back or tail and tail has a distinct fork. I caught many rainbow at Lake Roosevelt I thought were kokes until I learned to tell difference. I learned something too, didn't know there are no rainbows in Alder. Pic looks just like many native rainbows we've caught at Roosevelt. Still a nice fish! :-)
