Lemon Reservoir Kokanee

We've spent the time since the last post camped at Miller Creek at Lemon Reservoir. We normally avoid campgrounds like the plague... We don't have any neighbors at home, so camping at a campground isn't like "getting away from it all" it's more like "getting close to it all" That being said, we had some nice neighbors and it is really the only place we could camp and have our boat pulled up to camp. We caught plenty of Kokanee and ate them, but they were pretty damn small. I don't know if there are bigger kokes in there that we're missing, but we're going to go try elsewhere and see what we can come up with. I tried without the corn and with the corn, with the corn works better. Why fish that eat mostly zooplankton would enjoy anise scented corn, I'll never know. We fished at the inlet for the bigger browns but just caught a mushback stocker. A weekend on the lake is better than a weekend on the sofa. Edit: After speaking with aquatic biologist Jim White, I learned that Lemon's Kokanee are naturally reproducing, and lack the abundance of zooplankton found in other lakes because of the reservoir's lack of shallows. I think that means we need to go catch more so the average size can increase!
