A couple weeks ago I got out on the Metolius in search of some bull trout. The Kokanee were in spawn mode, the bull’s were just done with spawning and that is generally a good combination. I hit the usual spots and landed a few decent trout. Streamers and egg patterns worked well.
I picked up one of those camera’s that can go underwater, so I played with taking pictures of a few of the Kokanee that were spawning. I wish the camera wasn’t so automatic, it’ll be interesting to learn the nuances of it. No pictures of the bulls, but one showing a nice bend in the 8weight.

Nice photo with the multiple fish. Those Kokanee are funny on the Metolious. They sit right behind your leg while you hunt for the trout.
