where abouts in the lake were you RC. i used to troll from the boat laumch up to gold creek and back years ago. we used to limit out back then in a few hours on the koks.
Allouete lake
Well made it out to Allouette Lake on Sunday fished from about 9-2. The weather was mix of snow/rain/hail and sun :
Fishing was decent landed 6 kokanee and lost many more. Soft mouths on these little guys. Most of the hits came on the red micro leech on the cammo line. Also got broken off on the sink line using a green wolley bugger then proceeded to troll around with nothing on the line for 1hr before I checked doh :wallbash: Anyway fishing looks like its starting to heat up, great way to spend a spring day. See you on the water

I use to fish Allouete lake on a regular basis a few years back, havent been there for a while but heres what use to work for me. Troll straight out from the launch towards the little creek directly across from the launch full sink fly line on both fly rods.All the line out to the backing, 25'leader 4# tippet ,olive shrimp imitation on one, small dew worm on the other.Switch back three or four times going across to get the line to different depths. Usually get a few hits half way across on the shrimp. Once on the far side troll close to shore trying to avoide the big stumps at the mouth of the creek! (submerged) After that troll down the lake towards the old trees and pilings. On to the old hatchery and troll in tight by the rock breakwater just this side of the hatchery facility. This bit of structure is ussually where the big action is! After that across to the flats in front of gold creek. Then have a few wobbly pops cruising back to the launch. Usually is a five to ten fish day for me!
Oh yes there are.............. Gotta troll deep with small plugs and diver /or downrigger just off the bottom. Tough fishery with all the deadwood that is on the bottom of the lake....Depth finder is a must and make sure your rod is in a "bulletproof"holder. The chrome silver and blue diving plugs you would use to backtroll work quite well.......Ortho

Are you talking about a dipsy diver? im thinking of buying one and wondering how it is. I use 10lb line and a 7' medium action rod.fishortho said:Oh yes there are..............
Well I was on the water from noon until 6 and no bites. We trolled the west side down through the narrows with some larger laker lures, probably around 30-40 ft deep. The finder was pretty quiet. After a little fire, some hot dogs for lunch and fetch with the other dogs we set out to the east side of the lake to troll for some koks, used a willow leaf troll with a pink wedding band. I forgot to pick up worms on my way so I tipped the band off with some stinky powerbait. Trolled that at around 20 ft with no noticeable strikes. After that we decided to call it a day. Wicked weather to be out on the boat, it felt like summertime, besides the water that was a brisk 46f. I am going to have to buy the wife her license so I can put two rods in the water.....or leave her at home :-X
I though this would be a good pic from the day seeing as how there were none to be taken of fish....

The funny thing is she actually likes to wear those aviators!
