Jordanelle
#12
one thing this post shows us is you can catch kokanee alot of ways and if it works keep doing it if not change
what works for me may not work for you.
I do not fish Jordanelle a lot but the main thing like any lake is finding the kokanee 
most of the time when I go there I do OK and I fish Jordanelle, the same way I do Strawberry, Flaming gorge fish lake 
and like Stan said kokes will go to the food 
Water Temp. I'm a big beliver in this, but this time of year it does not work because the water temp is the same all the way to the bottom
and by the way I have fishfinders that will show me fish on top.
If kokanee could live in 70 deg. water they would be in every lake in Utah 

 Targeted Depth - Proper TemperatureThe single best predictor of kokanee location is temperature. I am not talking surface water temperature, but rather the correct temperature down in the water column, or temperature at depth. For kokanee, the preferred temperature is close to 54 degrees. It is true that they can be found at temperatures between 44 and 59 degrees. Below 54 degrees the kokanee are less active. Much above 54°, any extended stay will have detrimental or even lethal effects. Kokanee biology functions best at 54 degrees, and they will seek it out if it is available.That temperature provides the most efficient growth from feeding. That temperature also allows for the least amount of energy to be consumed for swimming and generally being in the business of being a kokanee. Wherever that 54 degrees is in the water column, that is your target depth. Early season temperatures may not be as high as 54°, which accounts for sometimes slower fishing.
