On the way home from a tough day at Lake Shannon my partner and I pulled into Cav. for some Kokes. Trolled the usual Kokanee (red) Promise Keepers, and various wedding ring type spinners behind chrome flashers. I think Michaels flasher was chrome/blue. Michael lost his first fish about 6 minutes into the trip. The next one came 5 minutes later. After about 3 hours we left with 9 fish of a 10 fish (2 person limit) we released probably 3. Mostly kokes were caught, and the usual 2-3 skinny cutts. The fish seem for me to be getting smaller right now in Cav. One was 12", most were about 9". The last fish of night which came off was bigger, and had some fight to him.
Fish came from 25' in 50-60' of water. As usual the center of the lake works best for me. Also trolling the far side from launch, along the greenbelt area. As evening came the fish were at 8' on the d.r. I never do well from the first small island going West to the end of lake. I also never fish the far end past the launch, as this area is very weedy and only 10-15' deep.
No craws. this time either. 3-4 other boats.

Thanks for the report sorry to hear you had a tough day on shannon. The fishing on stevens has been tough for me the last 2 times out notta. Thats interesting there getting smaller you would think they would get bigger. Good you almost got both your limits. Thanks for the great detail it will help when I get a chance to get up there. I would have been out yesterday with that great weather but decided to do work out side the house that needed done. Mainly mowe down my forest.
