Do you have a boat, if so just troll around using basic Kokanee gear. You might even snag into a brute of a bass while Kokanee fishing.
If you don't have a boat https://www.granitepointresort.com/boats-moorage rents boats.
Pic is a 6 lb 8 oz bass caught trolling for Kokes on Look lake.

If you do launch from the public launch either have a gps on you boat or make sure the light is working at the launch. It's a long way back in the dark. then trying to hit the dock in pitch black isn't any treat.
One plus is the limit is 10 and after midnite starts a new day. If it is good you can come off the lake with 20 fish.

I don't know about any guides for Loon lake, but it is a very easy fishery?

The hook in its face does look like a double hook set up perhaps from a wally bottom walker rig. But people fish lots of non-standard gear that works.
Yes the background doesn't look like anything I remember on loon.

I definitely need your scale if that's 6.5# :chuckle:
Believe what you want. It was weighed.
:bash:

Actually you are correct! The 6.8 pounder was from Palmer lake (we were staying at Spectacle lake), the 8.7 pounder (attached) was from Loon Lake.

What you are seeing (in the first pic) is the trail hook on a Double Whammy.

Thanks for the info. guys. I am in between boats right now and was hoping to learn the fishery for next year when I hope to have a boat again but will look in to the rental idea.
I have a PortABote 12’, which folds down for transport and has been used in Loon, plus a lot of others on the East side, if you are interested. Price would depend on what all you wanted with it.

:tup: Very nice!
Thanks, they are the only two Large Mouth I have caught, one trolling for Kokes, the other trolling for Rainbows, both on Double Whammys with a nighcrawler trailer. :chuckle:
