My wife got me a pair of Cabela's Three Forks Insulated Lug-Sole Hip Wader for Christmas. I love these thing,my feet stay warmer even when I in the water.
Before Christmas I dreaded the cold water-now just as long as I don't trip I am a happy camper!
If I do trip in the water and fall-I bet I can teach you some new words!
I have NEVER caught anything in dexter other than a squawfish (? think that's what it was called? I looked it up when I got home, UGLY fish, didn't look like it would be good eating, so I let it go, found out they deplete trout and salmon populations and are supposed to be retained, oops?) Maybe I'm just not fishing it right, but I've trolled all over that lake many, many times because it's close in and gas prices have been sucky. I've thrown everything I've got at those fish, and they just don't want it.
I was referring to Dexter. Dexter and I are not compadres. Lookout point has awesome fishing, I haven't been up there in a few years but it's always been good.Are you referring to Dexter Res. or Lookout Point Res? Lookout Point is above Dexter and has great fishing for trout and kokes.

for the longest time I had no clue that there were kokes in there, and I was migrating all the way up to O'Dell for 'em....150 miles round trip...to fish a lake that sucks after about 10 am when the wind picks up almost like clockwork, it's rare that it doesn't...which is not awesome in a small ghetto aluminum boat. The fishing has always been amazing up there...but again a long distance. It was like christmas the first time I pulled some kokes out of lookout, they're fun little fish to catch..and it's way closer to home.OK, Just wondering. I used to fish the upper end just as it slacks. Lots of kokes and big bows.

I was born and raised on the North Fork of the Willamette and the kokes migrated right in front of my house to spawn. Amazing thing to see!
I know about the wind on Odell. I have been blown from one end to other on more than one occasion!!:shock:
Would that be the North Fork of the Middle fork? I use to fish that years ago and it wasn't bad if you went up stream quite a bit. I haven't fished it in years, is it still worth while?

What?! I know in the past there had been chinook in there, and I believe at one point there were chinook dumped into Hills Creek as well. Landlocked chinook is just an odd concept.Ok everyone, I was informed this morning by the ODFW that there are no longer Kokanee in Lookout Point but there are now Chinook. You are allowed to harvest them under 24" and they are considered part of the 5 Trout daily limit.
