Joe,
I have never fished it in the winter. They draw the water down pretty low but you can still launch your boat. I have fished it in early March and caught fish. Some one told me the other day that they are going to be working on the lower ramp at Thistle this winter. :clap:

Joe,
Yes they are fine as long as they aren't real red. There are a lot of small next years fish that are available, but I would rather see them grow up for next year. The limit on Kokanee in GR is 25 a day.

Well I made my last trip to GP fishing for this year. I did fairly well I caught 19 nice kokanees. I put 2 back and lost 5, none of the fish were turning pink but some had lost most of there scales. It has been a great year of fishing, and the best part is meeting some of you that are on...

Am I the only one from the forum out fishing?
Another fine day of fishing at GP, I was loaded on the trailer at 2 PM with 25 nice Kokanees. All 25 were 12 to 15'' real nice fish. Some are loosing there scales and that means they are going to start turning red soon. The red hoochie didn't...

A great day of fishing at GP, a friend from Salem came down and we were fishing at 6:30. We had to work at it but we caught 43 and put back some small ones. The red hoochie worked the best along with the blue beaded lure. We caught all of our fish around the Island. We tried the stretch...

Dan,
That's a bummer that you didn't do any good at GR. I have my best fishing from daylight to 10:00 AM. May be next time it will be better, I have left my corn home once so I know what you mean. I carry some extra cans in the boat just in case I forget mine. Or I can give some one else...

Another good day of fishing at GP. I started at 6:00 AM and was loaded up at noon with 25 nice Kokanee. I put back 6 small ones and only lost 4 today. I had the best fishing 1/4 mile East of the Island,still using the red hoochie. We really had some rain this morning but it was nice under...

Yesterday GP was great fishing today not so good. :(
I started at 6 AM and then the wind came up so I quit at 10:00 with only 7 fish. By the way when you hook your favorite lure to your dodger be sure to close the snap. I trolled for 1/2 hour and not a bite when I pulled it up to see why...

I have been doing the best from the Island to the public restrooms, and east of there a few hundred yards. I have been trolling the hoochie at 1.3 MPH that seams to be the best speed for the hoochie. Use a dodger or sling blade with the hoochie no more than 14'' behind them with corn...

Another great day of fishing at GP. Two of us were fishing at 5-45 this morning and had the boat loaded at 2 PM with 50 fish. We put back several small ones and lost several but it was a fun day. We started fishing with the red hoochie and dodger and it worked good all day. One fish was...

Ron,
I am glad that you got the kid on some fish. I am wanting to get out there but its been to hot. It is looking good for next week, I plan on going Monday hope to see you out there. :pray:

I am sure that you can get down deep enough with out a downrigger. I have seen most fish at 32 to 60' deep with some shallower. Remember that your rigging will go a lot deeper with a flasher than a string of spinners. Good luck fishing. :clap:
Today was a :( sad day for the people that lost there boat, it burnt right to the water. I was the second one to get there to help. I don't know how the fire started but it went quick. They all got of the boat safely and were picked up immediately. I was 3/4 of a mile away when I saw the...
One other thing that I have found out how to keep them on the hook. I am not using a rubber snubber, so I set the releases real light so when they hit it sets the hook and they pull it out of the release. If they are pulling on the release to long they rip out. I am going tomorrow and hope the...

Another great day of fishing at GP. I was on the water at 5:30 AM, I let the down rigger down and before I could get set down I had a fish on. I have a little bell on the pole, and boy does it ring when they hit. They were all nice fish ranging from 9" to 13". I threw back 8 and lost 4...
