Hey all, heading to a buddy’s cabin at stump lake on the long weekend, he’s not much into fishing but gonna bring my little Lund, heard there was some  Kokanee in there anyone have any experience with this fishery, thanks

I've fished it a lot over the years but mostly on the fly. What are you planning on using? For flies I've had success targeting kokanee on small bright green chironomids and small red leeches.

Here's a good video on using spinning tackle to fish for them in Stump by Brian Chan:

It has good kokanee though I did not get one. The rainbow size is shrinked and meat is pale. There are many quality lakes nearby. You don't have to fish stump lake all day long.

I've heard the kokanee fishery is better in june and july once the water warms up more but I'm sure you can still get some action.  I was going to suggest the video Colin posted as well and there's a few other gear videos on youtube.

There are some huge rainbows there, my best guess would be chironomids on the shoals, maybe a bigger meal item like fat leech patterns or a floating gomphus with very short leader on a sinking line twitched in 10-15ft .

Be prepared for wind so get on the water early

The 2 times I have fished stump I’ve been blown off the lake all the way to lundbom and Roche the other time.

Could be mistaken but I thought I heard the road into Stump was washed out ? I've never been there but thought I heard some guys talking at Tunkwa that it was hooped.

There's multiple roads around Stump Lake but as far as I know Planet Mine Rd is fine as far as cabin access go. It could be washed out after the cabins though (towards to camping area) or something may have changed really recently.
