Fished out of Keller with my best friend and his cousin. The three of us grew up together and this was the first time we had all got to go out together in a long time.

On the water by 8:00 lines in before 8:15 done at 12:30, Set all four lines and soon the downrigger at 15 ft went off. first koke of the day, we caught fish on all our offerings today except the fly that i changed out, with the most productive being 1.5" hoochies 18" behind a flasher @13-15 ft on the downrigger. We also caught a few on the same setup off a lead line at 120 ft- 50ft of it a mono leader. Lastly we got a few on a spliced line (50 ft mono leader, one color lead, braided behind) also about 120ft back running an orage apex a little over 20" behind a small flasher (I really like this line setup for running right near the surface)

It was a great day and we finished with our 6 Kokanee from 17-22" and 3 rainbows from 16-20", we also lost 3

Thanks Dave, that means a lot coming from you. Credit where credit is due, your reports have REALLY helped my success when fishing for these silver bullets this spring. It's great to see that some guides are willing to share enough info for the rest of us to start with some success and piece the rest of it together over a few trips.
