At Donner Lake today. It was a little cool, with more wind than I like, but we did our best. 2 rods down for Lake Trout and 2 down for kokanee. It's interesting to note that every year we get an oddball kokanee that's bigger than the rest. Last year we landed one kokanee at 15 inches and today's was 15 1/4.....for all you koke nuts lol.
