Following several weeks of slower fishing for kokanee anglers report good angling for nice-sized kokanee averaging 13 inches and Lake Trout. Many anglers reported catching limits of kokanee at a recent fishing derby at Odell. Fish are beginning to darken in preparation for spawning but should be of good quality though August. See the announcement above regarding how to distinguish Bull Trout from Lake (Mackinaw) Trout.
