John Knudsen and I started fishing about 8:30am. It was sunny, calm, and quiet. The water went from 71 to 73 degrees. We quit between 11:30 and noon because of a boat and jet ski’s doing donuts. And it was too hot. The lake was at 1,203.22 feet with full pool at 1207.

Both of us had a fish to the boat within 30 minutes. John’s got into the boat mine did not. Some of the action was hot and then it would slow down. I would get one on my lower rod and then lower my top rod down to where my lower rod was and get a bite. My stacked rods are 10 feet apart. We found fish on the downriggers from 14 to 26 feet. Dodgers were Hypnois for me with Patriot and a green lure. John used a watermelon dodger with a Patriot lure. I just used corn for bait. Unscented at first then tuna flavored corn.
We were able to put 6 kokanees into the boat. John tried pulling plugs without any luck. Of the 6 only one had an intact adipose fin.

Sad to say I forgot to turn on one of the cameras. The one that had the most action. The bottom rod of the stacked pair.
