We were fishing a red and white crappie jig just before darkness and got a nice Kokanee. I hooked it but handed the pole to my son. He fought it hard and got it into the dock. We didn't know what the heck it was so let it go. Found out later Kokanee are in the lake. It was probably 16".

It may have actually been a Sockeye as Kokanee are rarely over 14 inches. There is a fish ladder from Chambers creek that many spawning Salmon climb. It would be awesome if they dropped some Sockeye plants in there from Native stock somewhere else since Sockeye are so rare in this area.
