I had so much fun fishing with my friends, the Anantatmula family, last Friday I just had to go back to Lake Chelan. This time I had my friend James Lebow along. We had been trying to get to Chelan because he wants to can a bunch of kokanee. Also with us was Bill Hansen, a long-time friend and occasional fishing buddy. I had a pretty good idea where the fish were going to be, so we launched at Mill Bay and ran down the lake and put our gear out just below Rocky Point. We were in and out of the fish all morning. We would have a big flurry of bites and had several doubles. Then we would be out of the fish for a while. I was sure glad I brought along my portable mister. It made fishing in the heat bearable. We had 25 fish on the clicker when we decided to just troll on up to the launch. By the time we got there we had 29 fish and called it a day. Once again Kokabow Tackle did the job, and we found both pink and orange squids or spinners worked equally well.
You can see on my Garmin screen how we moved our downriggers down to reach this big school of kokanee on Lake Chelan.
