April 1st trip with Kevin

[Rush]

Buddy is still a pup, but so smart, I loved every minute of fishing with him and Rush. They make a great pair. I can't say enough about Rush calling me on the Crappie bite, and how appreciative he was, and wanting to learn about jigging, and using the Assassins

Thanks Kevin. But still think you chose the wrong pic. I also didn’t know what Avatar meant but Dallas Massie educated me

 

[POk3s]

That pic will do I suppose just good to see an “avatar”!!!

 

[Fubarfishin]

Great report, nothing like learning from a master. Congrats on boating that pig!

They were all caught throwing the walleye assassin

I have never used a walleye assassin. Were you using them for the Stripers as well? What colors work best for Powell?

There's a long list of us that would love to be schooled by Kevin. I'm sure I'd learn more in one day than I've learned the last 30 years fishing Powell.

Nice Walleye KYKevin. I have not got one that big. Rush if you fish with Kevin, you need a bigger cooler

You are exactly right. I learned so much and now have confidence I can go out and catch.

I just got back from another trip and filled my little cooler. It only hold 20 stripers with ice. Those 4 pounder fill it fast. So yes, now I need a bigger cooler

Does any one have a location of the mud line at the Horn? Going down this Friday for 4 days don't know if the water is to stained yet.

I was just there. Water is stained but fishable . I would fish Red Canyon and below. You can see a definite mud line .

My brother-in-law just got back as well. He said he fished the stained water around the horn but fishing was better at Dungees Island just outside of the mud line.

I ran into him up there when he was headed home. He hooked us up with some much needed ice and some of his leftover anchovies. He has an awesome looking boat, he had wi-fi and everything on that boat. Let him know those anchovies he gave us caught a ton of fish!

Hello Chovyboy! Heading down today for a few days where did you use anchovies? I’m taking a first timer and would love to help her reel a few in that way. Thanks!

PFD could you help understand where the islands are exactly? I would love to troll and cast by them? Thanks man!

Troll just about anything in these areas in 14 to 30 feet of water until you find a school. We had the best luck with bright blues yellows and orange. When you start marking the school reel up your trolling lines set spot lock and drop the anchovies.

This same trip I got in with the Davis family/ Last cast, to try and catch some Striper for Easton and Calvin. It was slow most of the morning, but picked up and we caught 26 nice Striper. Those kids were tickled pink and had a fun time. So did there dad Kendall and Grand Pa Kelby. They had caught 2 the day before, so they were very happy. I ended the trip with Rush and Buddy catching 56 Crappie and Bluegill, and 55 Striper and Rush caught a Wally. Fun times at Powell The boys got there first taste of green lights and night fishing the slips, and even though it was slow, had a great time

 

[greyhackle]

I’m really glad you got those two boys into some fish. Great pictures too! Thanks Kevin
