Kokanee At Merwin Reservoir- How To When To & What Not To Do. Gear & Techniques Explained.

- It was 30 plus years ago when my wife and I caught our last Kokanee. A cold spring morning lead us to Alder Lake in Pierce County where you could find us nearly every weekend chasing Land Locked Sockeye Salmon better known as Kokanee.
Since then we have diversified our fishing schedule to the point of neglecting those small but rambunctious and tasty critters.
No more will Kokanee be safe from the pursuit of the Northwest Fishing Fanatics crew for I plan on many more adventures in the future so stay tuned. East side West side no Kokanee is safe.
On this trip Mike and I used a variety of tackle and baits to encourage savage takedowns and vicious strikes from the depths of this man made reservoir known as Lake Merwin. We walked away with a limit of 20 Kokes and had a blast reminiscing about the past, talking about present day and planning many more fishing adventures in the future.

I've never even been there, but even I know that boat launch!
Beautiful place. Thanks for watching.
That is amazing the rubber wasn't rotted. It hasn't been quite 30 years, but a long time for me since I fished for Kokes also ( maybe 15 ?? ). I might try it later on this year. Fish On yeaaahhh !!!
Do it. thanks for watching.
Beautiful B-Roll of the Lake with the reflection of the sky Jean.
As an avid guitar player I really appreciate the guitar music in this video.
Thanks.
I like your videos man due to the authenticity but would love you to do more and longer ones😊
Thanks
Right on great eating fish... Love them Kokanee
Smoked them yesterday.. Amazing.
@@Northwestfishingfanatics Oh yes hard to beat smoked Kokanee!!
My wife caught a 22 inch Kokanee on the South side of the lake, East of Cresap. Its our favorite lake to fish in Washington.
Nice. I'd love to catch one that big.
I've never caught one!
Keys in pocket so you don't drop them in the lake - because you know Trent would!!
Gotta be safe. 😆
Did you catch any using that OG1? That color combo is our favorite on Chelan and Roosevelt.
Was it the 1.8” or 2.13”?
1.8 and no, nothing on it. Everything came on the shrimp micro hoochie.
@@Northwestfishingfanatics The reason I asked is because we suggested that color to the owner of Old Goat and he made the for us. It’s been a solid producer for kokes. But micro shrimp are always out in our boat as well. You give them what they’re telling you they want! Great video! Enjoyed it.
Was this at merwin I was thinking about going some time but didn't want to go all the way out there and not get anything
Yes. Beautiful place. Can't wait to go back. Thanks for watching.
The fish are plentiful on merwin.
No problem
@@outdoorsy2603 this time of the year theyre up high in the water column so there's no need for downriggers or droppers. Everything was caught with 22 of the surface.
Ok
Where are you slab masters?😊
Merwin Reservoir
That lake is only 1 hour away from me
Lucky!
@@Northwestfishingfanatics ....I am in Tacoma...spanaway end
I’m in Oly and it’s over 2hrs for me. Guess I need to drop the pedal to the metal more next time! 😂
If you net a fish twice, does that count as two fish? :)
If you do it with pizazz yes... lol
