For a 'Poor fishing' day (solunar charts), Echo was actually fairly good this morning, at least early morning..trolling for the 'bows, buddy and I started by 0745..2 early hookups for me saw decent rainbows sky rocketing up and out, and unfortunately losing both..exciting for awhile..I lost another 1 like that, and then my buddy also, and we're thinking..what? are these kokanee?..but I don't think there are kokes in Echo..those 4 we lost, but then by 0930 we boated a good 2 man limit, all 15 to 17" range, just nice fish...a few more lite taps after that, but no more hookups..the trash boats started arriving by 0930, churning and burning...no more bites after 1000, even trying to escape their shenanigans for another hour of fishing...chartreus best for me, tipped with garlic flavored pink grubs..planer boards and down riggers worked today, early 17/18 feet down, then by 0900, 28 to 31 feet down...surface 70*...even more trash boats launching as we were trying to depart..I'd hate to be here on a Saturday..Guluk...
