we went after big Lakers left my house at 4AM had Icey roads so took us about a one hr. longer to get their.
had a hard time finding them, the ones we did find would not bit we were late getting on the water

3 of use were tired of of not catching anything so we went looking for Kokanee. 

first stop none,.  next stop about 4 mi away found them saw how deep they were put the down riggers down 
and we started catching 2 or 3 at a time when we went through the schools did not take us to long to get all that the law would allow.
good size some were 20 in.

next day went back the same place they were a lot harder to catch took us a lot longer to get are limit. 

but we went home happy,    did not get cold, flat water.     boat trailer got a flat tire,

Thanks for the report Robert, sounds like the koke catching is starting off good this year. A flat tire on your new trailer, bummer.
