We weren't fishing, just went up to see the Kokanee at Causey.

Nice video, 'Beech. I see nothing wrong with your method of recording it, as others mentioned over on UWN.

Seriously, that lake needs less kokes and I actually hope you crushed some eggs. Even if you didn't, I liked the video.

Thanks. So there are too many Kokanee up at Causey, huh? Are people just not catching them, because they just fish for Trout, while the Salmon aren't taking that kind of bait?

[LOAH]

Kokanee fishing is pretty specialized. You'll catch plenty of trout while targeting them, but using typical trout methods, you won't catch many kokes.

They're plankton feeders, mostly. From what I understand, the kokanee in Causey aren't very big. Did you see any over 16" or near that size?

[Sombeech]

Nah, probably 14" at best
