I caught a few in Kawkawa last week ( Kokanee ) while trolling. The three Kokanee we caught had zero worms. Although they did look pale. They  looked like they had been exposed to the sun and dried out. I did find them awfully grassy tasting. First year I've had that taste from Kawkawa Kokanee. Tasted like muddy Merritt trout. Yuck

That is strange. I haven't eaten a kokanee of their for a few years, but before that, I bonked them all the time. Never had a fish that didn't taste like a nice sockeye.

Mmmm. Tastes like muddy Merritt trout. My favourite. What u all catching those tasty Kokanee on?

I'm wondering if there is a lack of feed that contributes to the kokanee's flesh colour.

That was my experience of them from last year. I had a couple of limits that ended up in the smoker instead. No more Kawkawa kokanee for me anymore.
