Great job. I unfortunately am in isolation due to a case of covid. Sooner or later this round of bad luck will turn around. Then watch out fish.

Have you tried the cocktail shrimp on kokanee? I haven't fished baker for several years, but when I did, I used to get a lot of small kokanee 8" or so when fishing for reds as the sun got higher in the sky. Just curious as I sit hear watching fishing on TV and living with my fate.
Time cures all evils. Hopefully I will be back on the water for pinks and silvers.Jul 18, 2023 22:59:40 #

Unfortunately, the immunity thing is a more miss information. My Sister and brother in law out in Idaho are both sick with covid. It is the third time they have gotten it. All three times it was verified covid.
