Kokanee Fishing - Lake Stevens

The kokanee fishing at Lake Stevens has started to happen with many of the regulars catching their limits (10 fish). Though the lake has still been a little on the cool side the fish are starting to school up and are biting on a more regular basis. Most of the fish we are hearing of have been caught in the 10-25 foot depth range. Fish have been for the most part in the 11-13 inch range with a few larger fish to 16 inches. As far as gear goes it seems to be everything from soup to nuts, with anglers fishing small dodgers, sling blades or gang trolls for the attractor and a blade and beads (wedding ring type lures) in conjunction with maggots or corn. Some are fishing the small mini hoochies (squids) both with and without a blade in front or small (size 14) spin n glos. If you are not doing well change your offerings as kokanee are sometimes a very moody and temperamental fish.

We have a "Great" selection of kokanee gear. We now have maggots in stock with both the natural white as well as pink.

Don't forget the 1st Annual Lake Stevens Kokanne Derby coming up on May 22nd! We have tickets. Adults 15years and older $20.00 / Kids 14 and under "Free"!
