Fished Kawkawa on Saturday. There were perhaps eight boats on the lake. Had some good success trolling flies close to the surface.

Nice I want to go this weekend what flies were you using?

[Easywater]

Anything bright red or orange will work with Kokanee.

There are 2 flies that I use:
 - a red Spratley


 - another that looks like a red wooly bugger but not quite so "wooly" - just red wool wrapped thickly around the body of the hook - I think it has wings too.

I'll take a look in my flybox when I get home for a pic.

Kind of a crappy pic but here it is:


You want something that imitates the krill - little red/orange freshwater shrimp.

Thx I used krill last year I want to fly fish for them this year also how are you fishing for them troll? or cloudy days casting is there a general area that is good for Kokanee on the lake?
