Met up with fellow NWFR member JoshH and we hit Lake Sammamish for some cutthroat action. Began fishing about 8:30am using Elgin Fishing God's Tooth Kokanee trolling rigs available at Reli Lures. We used only 2 patterns today, the 50/50 blue and the perch. God blessed with 5 fish in the box plus an additional 2 others we released and I lost a nice one as well. JoshH also managed to catch and release a nice perch.

We used dodgers with 14" leaders and 50' set backs. Almost all fish caught at a depth of 45'. The fish ranged from about 14" to 17.5".
The video below shows some of the action for the day.

For those with questions on rigging for trout, kokanee, or salmon, please visit our website under the "videos/testimonies" tab for the "how to rig" video as well as our tutorial page. Our Facebook page also provides a blog of current happenings. Wishing all tight lines!

Thanks for showing me the lake. Need to hit it in the winter after the spawn and they start feeding again!
