I have some exciting plans for this week, and that is another visit to Lake Roosevelt. I have made two trips to the big reservoir earlier this winter, just to fish from shore. I had great trout fishing off the beach at Spring Canyon, catching fish to 22 inches.

This time I will be taking my Kingfisher Discovery 2025, and will be trying to see if I can catch some of the big kokanee that are known to be biting at this time of year. I am taking Eric Granstrom along to capture the action for a Fishing TV Show and Shane Magnuson and Kyle Kelly will also be coming along to add their expertise to the effort.

We will be trying the area near Spring Canyon Park, but are prepared to run up the reservoir to the Swawilla Basin and maybe even up to the San Poil Arm. We will be spending the night at Coulee House Inn and Suites in Grand Coulee so we can spend the better part of two days on the water.

It has been a few years since I have been trolling here, and I have high hopes for taking very good numbers of rainbow and some dandy kokanee.
