Re: Land locked salmon
do a search on kokanee and you will see many youtube vids and trolling gear that are targeted at these fish. I used to fish aeroflex alot years ago and Ive never caught one, even when targeting them. They are easier to catch this time of the year than in summer. aeroflex has a good herring population, and the place is a bowl 95% of the time, 20ft off shore you are in 20-30fow, so search for schools of herring and pay attention to their depths. thats where i would be targeting my gear, and also running some lines up high around 15-20ft down. just be careful trolling there, its basically 3 large bowls, the center bowl is around 100ft deep, but if your not careful w ur chartplotting you will troll right into the humps that divide the bowls and snag your gear. I would focus on the first 2 bowls, thats where most the trout Ive gotten were at, summer months u can jig them right on the bottom or night fish them like at RV. side imaging really helps on finding the bait balls without searching hard and if you have good marks you can even jig them up. I dont think the ramp dock is in anymore there, you will need knee boots to probably launch and retreive your boat, good luck. fyi they also had 600ish trout popped in on fall stocking, not much pressure up there after summer, should be at least a few trout to be had
