Started at 6:30am fishing edges of rock walls over 100’ of water. Red trolling flies seem to attract the heavier fish. We released 5, and kept 2 ea. Off the water about noon as the wind picked up.

Hard to rate trip a 2, but wasn't a 3, and although targeted species was kokanee, we didn't catch any, but did catch some RBT. 0430 departure put us at the boat barn right at 6am. Unload/load gear,...

This is a month late report. I’m new to the site and I thought someone might be able to use this information for the future. I fished Roosevelt June 6 and 7 with Lake Mcguiness thrown in. The first da...

Warmer water temps have unveiled the locations of Roosevelt’s Kokanee as it typically does each year. The warmer water drives them to the depths to where they can no longer hide from modern technology...

I’ve resumed running trips south of the confluence for rainbows. My last two trips this week provided non stop action for us. These fish flat out put us to work. The best part about this time of year ...

Not fair to rate a 3 because we only fished a short time, but did manage 3 to the boat and one coming unbuttoned before making it to net range. The day's mission was to get my 4yr old granddaughter...

We started early, on the water by 8am. The Lincoln launch was snow covered but offered good traction. We headed to Hawk creek to let the ground fog subside and marked nothing. I decided to make the ru...

Fished Sat/Sun downstream of Seven Bays. Sat was an awesome day, sunny, mostly calm, and nice. Funny how you can round a bend and be in winds then round another bend and be in flat calm conditions. ...
