Went out with a friend for those cutts. Got a few, but lots of Kokanee (released of course). We tried up sizing the lures to focus on the cutts, but even caught kokes on large flatfish. Silly fish :)

Are you catching those pesky Kokanee on the surface? What are there average size? Flatfish and Kokanee..........go figure!

We were getting fish in the top 20'. The kokes were good size 14ish in. The cutts ranged from 10-18 in.

Good to hear Kokanee are back. Wasn't it up until a year or two ago they were thought to be extinct in the Sammamish?

It's good to hear that there are a good number of Kokanee ready to spawn next year. Numbers have been horrible in the past, but this last year they've begun to come back:

What size flatfish were you using? I got a tip that they work well for Kokanee so I bought a bunch of smaller ones in the offseason to try this spring in Stevens.

The flatfish the kokanee hit was a X3 size. I think. I was surprised a koke would hit such a large lure.

I had the same thing before Christmas. Last time out by myself it was 2 Cutts and 4 Kokes. All on small dodger and Needlefish. They seem farily common this winter and they are all nice, healthy fish.
