Trout & Kokanee. Fishing American Lake in January.

- "This last year I caught 2398 Trout, I Am As Good As It Gets", is what I was told by the "Old Timer" at the boat launch. I don't doubt him at all. I trolled around American Lake for about 4 hours with several different set ups and look forward to the next time, as usual... I also met a channel subscriber as he took out his boat at the launch.
It is always nice to meet you guys out and about on the river or on a lake. I look forward to many more fishing adventures. I appreciate each and every one of you. Thank you for watching.

Love American lake. I only have had one kokanee bite all winter. I am so ready for spring!
Thanks for taking us on your adventure.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
Catching is the bonus. Beautiful lake! 👍👍👍
Thanks and thanks for watching.
I have always gotten solid kokes out of American lake! Limited out. I use a quiet small pontoon rig with electric motor - usually catch them around 50ft during the summer just north of the island there. I'm also a big believer in using scented corn, use some UV enhancer if you have any too.
Thanks.. Appreciate it.
I like to use barbless jig hooks and tie my own wooly buggers with Chenille Palmer. Crazy how they can mimic small bait fish so well.
Wedding rings are a good choice for that lake for the rainbows and kokanee... the v.a side is great for the kokanee if you go deep enough... that's my home lake and love fishing it fir hold overs... maglip 2.5 or 3.0 in the flashier patterns slay as well... And the gentleman you met is a local legend for sure... he catches alot of fish
Dude is a legend. I am at that lake at least twice a month. See you out there!
If I see you on the river, I'll be sure to say hi. Looking forward to fishing the 2023 season.
Me too. Thanks for watching.
Hey there, nice to meet you out there today. Follow the old timer you met out there, he knows how to get them and nobody fishes like him. He catches the fish others dont know how to.
Pleasure meeting you too.
The sky behind you is the big catch of this trip.. nice view!
It was a beautiful day for sure. Thanks for watching .
That is a wonderful lake for perch during this time of the year
I saw guys catching them.
My back yard! have a love hate relationship with American Lake!
Big like and very very nice ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for liking
Trout/Kokanee can be tough fishing. I'll go days without catching a fish! You just never know. :D
So it's not just me? :-)
Go out of the boat launch to the right, between the island with houses on it troll between that island and mainland its about 70-90 ft deep there. I troll a purple wiggle hoochie and a 4in silver dodger with trout/steelhead scent and it kills it out there
Ok. I will next time. Thanks.
American Lake is fickle. Been skunked out there myself. Try the north shore/west end of the lake next time. Maybe I'll catch you out there. Tight lines!
Will do. Thanks.
It happens to all of us!
Yes sir it does...
I met as good as it gets at spanaway lake he had a cooler full of big fat brown trout ! Didn’t get his name would love to get fly tying lessons from him
That's a lot of fish that guys caught. I guess I can believe it though if he fishes every day, especially the first couple of months after stocking; 40-50 fish days should be possible then.
Oh I believe him. Nice to be retired.
Love your videos and would love to fish with ya sometime
Thanks for watching. Appreciate it.
That guys wife sure must be proud of him...
Oh yeah...
I saw the problem right off....you should have taken Mr. AS GOOD AS IT GETS! Don't you just gotta shake your head at goofs like that? I do
Surely would have helped.
Hey. What lake is that? I live in the area
America Lake
@@Northwestfishingfanatics American Lake, the entrance is near camp murray.
Of course you couldn't catch anything, the "old timer" already caught them all!
Right! I'll get some soon. Gotta be some left. 😆
