The Cook Shack was a busy place at the annual Rock Island Kids Fishing Day. Ray Pearson's crew served everything from donuts in the morning to hot dogs and Pepsi at noon for the hungry fishing families.

Here is one of the kokanee that my brother Rick and I caught on my last trip to Chelan. Kokanee were still hanging out at 70 to 90 feet deep and still hitting our hoochie rigs baited with white corn.

Tom Bartlett of Plain had never caught a kokanee on Lake Chelan, and was pretty happy with this one. Jumbo kokanee fishing is still very good on Chelan and shows no sign of slowing down.

Greg Mohrland of Walla Walla was very pleased with this permit he caught on his first day of fishing on our trip to Belize. His goal was to catch a permit, and it was the first fish he caught!

Johnny Boitano holds up a rainbow on the Yakima River. He put Rollie Schmitten and I on over 20 fish in the lower canyon. We go fish on stone flies and dry flies, and we didn't see another boat!
