Yale kokanee
« on: November 10, 2021, 02:11:22 PM »
Let you all know there are some fish in Yale.  Limited Monday in about 5 hrs., but man, are they small.  Ten inches is a big one, a long ways to go but it was fun to get out.  Probably try Merwin next time.

Good to hear. I’m going to start fishing them again for the first time since I was a kid. Picked up a Smokercraft that i’m getting dialed in currently, and working on getting my tackle.

Do you care to share our tackle setup? Colors, tackle, and what not. Thanks!

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

Yep, I've had success with this setup too. It's generally good fishing, but I don't know how good it will be with all the water flooding I've seen out on the Lewis and Columbia today.

The more fish we catch out of there the better! They're so tiny they need their population thinned out a bit in order for them to get big. It's a lot more fun when you're catching 1.5 lb+ kokanee.

Yale has a lot more fish but they are much smaller. Merwin has bigger fish but a lot less of them.
