I got to go on a fishing adventure with Rob Holman and my son James on the Detroit reservoir. The target were kokanee, however, the lake is heavily stocked with nice rainbow trout.

We fished 5 rods using kokanee gear. We used our fishfinder and kept the gear from surface down to 80 feet. We mostly fished around the big island but also ran down to the dam. Best action was the island.

Lots of quality 12-17" rainbows ended up in the cooler, but only one kokanee. No matter, the trout cut nice and were a lot of fun to catch.

Detroit lake is beautiful and well worth a trip if you're looking for new waters to explore.

Thanks to Scuttlebutt Brewing for sponsoring our trip, the (on ice) beer was the icing on the trip!
