Kokanee galore at Dworshak

Anglers should be excited about what was discovered during the Idaho Department of Fish and Game’s recent kokanee survey of Dworshak Reservoir — fish are stacking up in the upper reservoir and their size is quite appealing. The larger fish have begun their migration up the reservoir as they prepare to spawn. The highest densities of kokanee were found from Gold Creek to well above Grandad Bridge. “If anglers want to catch these fish, the upper part of the reservoir is the place to be,” said Sean Wilson, Fish and Game fisheries research biologist./ Mike Demick /CDA Press.

Sadly, I’ve never fished Dworshak. Where else are the fish biting?
