We hit Ririe yesterday for Kokanee. We got on the water at 7 am. We found them around 40 foot deep. We caught them trolling around 1 mph with downriggers. A pink and silver dodger about 12 inches of leader then a pink squid type lure tipped with corn. I got quit a few on a little kokanee lure that was pink on one side and White on the other, also tipped with corn. It was steady fishing and by 11:30 we had our 30 fish limmit. 15 each. Then got two more before we could get the rest of the poles back in. We did catch some small ones, but mainly, they are the best I've ever seen at Ririe. Steady action the whole time.

Gotta love it, good action, good eating!
That’s great to hear. We’re going out there tomorrow morning. Have the downrigger’s all set and ready to go. I have never fished ririe, but my father did years and years ago. Just can’t catch anything at Henry’s fly fishing lately so we’re gonna try something new. Thanks for the comment and the pics
