For anyone who wants to jump over the western line, BC that is and give Kokanee a try this might wet your taste buds a bit for the excellent kokanee action happening this time of year. If you have what it takes to troll for Cold Lake Lake trout then you'll be ready to catch some Kokanee... 50-60 feet down and you'll be on your way to catching some of these tasty fresh water salmon.

Check out this monster that tried to become a meal on the underwater down rigger cam.

Try a ruby red wedding band (I prefer smaller sizes) behind a willow leaf troll at 50'.

The video is from Kalamalka Lake forgot to mention that. Went to Mabel lake yesterday trying for Chinook. They were rolling by the Shushwap river exit but nothing biting for me. The underwater camera showed lots of kokanee. The fish finder was covered in 40 to 60 fow. They were average size probably 10 to 14 inches long.
