I have found what the fishing for kokanee is like at Lake Chelan, and I am anxious to get down to Moses Lake or Potholes to do some walleye fishing soon. Before I do more kokanee fishing or walleye fishing I am headed south, way south on the Columbia River to fish for spring salmon at Drano Lake. This will be my third annual trip to fish with Shane Magnuson down there and I am really excited about it. He has been giving me up dates on the fishing down there and his limited often and early. The fish are really rolling up the river now. On the 1st of May over 15,000 passed over Bonneville Dam in one day. There have seven to nine thousand a day since then. I’d say our chances of getting a few of these early season springers are pretty good. Most of these fish will range in size from 10 to 12 pounds, but there have been some in the mid 30s landed at Drano this year. You can get an immediate up date on my fishing experience down there by going to my Home Page and clicking onto the Blog button on the navigation bar. I’ll be posting text and photos from the boat!
