Took the Wavewalk kayak out to Clear Lake in pursuit of some Kokanee. Beautiful day to be out on the water (at least before the wind got going). Got on the water at 7:30 and off by 11:30 with a nice limit of 11.5-12.5 inch Kokes. Pretty standard size for this lake. They are great on the table. Usual stuff dodger, homemade wedding ring, and shoepeg corn.

I fish out of a yak also. Were you long lining or were you using a downrigger?

Hi Bonny1 - I have a downrigger. So I had one line at 19 ft. and then I had a second pole that I was just long lining with a Dick nite and two small split shot just to get it down a little more. I caught 3 out of the 5 on the rigger the others on the long line pole. 19ft. is easily done long lining as far as that goes. It is a great lake for a kayak until the skiers come out and use you as a pylon for their slalom course. Same as it is on any lake these days.

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm still mulling over how to get a downright on my PA14.
Been fishing Stevens lately with fair to good results.
How much of a set back do you use.
Cheers

I usually go 30 to 35 pulls (50 - 60) feet. I think we can get away with less since we do not have any motor noise and such a small boat. .02 tight lines.
