Met 8-10 other kayak anglers at Lake Samish this morning to chase Kokanee. Samish again did not disappoint!

Fishing started off slightly slower than I expected. It turned out that the fish were much deeper than I would have thought for this time of year, 43 - 50ft down, and in a slightly different area of the lake than I normally fish. Once I found the location and depth, it was lights out for a quick limit morning. Lot's of action. Numerous drive-by's and get off's on top of the 10 I landed.

The Elgin Fishing God's Tooth Spoon in 50/50 kokanee rigged with 12 inches of leader behind a Dick Nite clown pattern dodger was the hot set up for me. Trolled between 1 - 1.2 mph to get my fish. Most of the fish ran about 12 inches, with the largest being just under 14.

Video show my set up and the action for the day.
