For FishingMagician.com, I'm Eric Granstrom. My grandfather introduced me to kokanee fishing without me even knowing it. I tagged along with him a few times to Lake Cavanaugh when I was a kid. He'd motor us out to his favorite spot, drop anchor and then take a screwdriver and punch a bunch of holes in a can of corn, tie it to a rope and drop it overboard. Then, we'd take some corn and put it on a single hook and drop it down. Before long, you'd feel a very light tap-tap-tap on the end of your rod and reel in a bright, silver wiggling fish. I didn't realize until I was much older that we were catching kokanee. I moved to Wenatchee over 30-years ago and it wasn't long until I got into fishing kokanee on Lake Chelan. You can't chum them in like grandpa used to do on Cavanaugh, but if you get into a school, it can sure be fun! Exploring the region, I soon learned kokanee can be caught on many lakes in North Central Washington, including Conconully, Palmer, Fish, and of course, Lake Roosevelt. It's hard to find better table fair. Until next time, Good Fishing!
