- Return to Lane Merwin for revenge on the kokanee. It has been a tough year and although this day was still a bit rough, we could have scratched out a limit if we stayed a bit longer. We had plenty of opportunities but missed probably 15-20 takedowns and. drive by’s and plenty got off on the way to the boat.
we were using deadly venom tasmanian plugs, paulina peak spinners and mysis bug, i used a custom made simple lure single green chartreuse spin n glow, and an assortment of other lures one of which was a custom made brown dog spinner which are USA made for n Washington.

I noticed your Merc trolling motor was puffing steam.. usually means a plugged water exhuast line. Sometimes bugs get in there and plug the line or just slime algae , blow it out before you over heat the engine. Been there done that. Good fishing just to be out there and alive.
thanks it’s a buddies boat
i’ll let him know
Great video. Was just out there yesterday and got 7 fish. Very slow. Worth it anyway because it’s just beautiful out there.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed. It is beautiful, some days are rough and some are on fire
PS change the impeller , you can buy a kit for it before you screw up that engine.
make sure to watch to the end for filet
Nice job! How deep were you fishing? I was there last week solo and did ok but also missed a ton of fish somehow.
we started out on top, no weight and back 150-175 on the line counter. I was using my buddies pink Tasmanian plug and it was the main producer right off the bat until midway into sun up. I changed to a small green presentation and started getting lit up
was dropping 2oz at 55-75’
later we threw 1oz on the back today and went back 125-165 and caught a few
i would estimate the target depth was between 20-25 in the water column
also running the down rigger at 30 on the wire and that produced the bigger fish one was 14”
@@360Angling-Outdoors Right on, thanks! I bet it will be busy up there this weekend.
@@ag8782 it could be a good weekend to go because a lot of anglers are going to be going to the tributary's for spring or fishing because they're going to close a Columbia on Friday for Springer fishing
