- British Columbia's Cariboo region has no shortage of lake fishing options. Deka, Hathaway, Sulphurous, Bridge are just some of the big lakes which produce trophy sized kokanee salmon. In this video, we returned to Sulphurous Lake and joined my friend Mike Ramsay who is the senior biology for the region. We trolled for kokanee, which are landlocked sockeye salmon, some of the best tasting freshwater fish species in Canada.

The trout and Kokanee you catch in lakes always seem to have beautiful red flesh. Do those lakes all contain freshwater shrimp? Another great program provided by the fisheries agency in BC!
Yep the colour is mainly due to the scuds in the lake which they feed in. The texture and taste however, are very different between these kokanee and rainbow trout. During this particular trip, we brought home some rainbow trout which had the same bright red flesh colour too, but the kokanee taste way better.
That was super; a complete tutorial on how to catch Kokanee. Thanks Rod
Thanks Andrew! Mike should be the one taking all the credit on delivering all the knowledge on kokanee fishing.
Awesome fish!! You guys don’t use corn or Berkeley maggots?
Sorry, I should have mentioned it in the video, but the bait being added to the hooks were corn. Garlic, tuna, anise flavoured.
Great video! Nice to see you out trolling!
Thanks!
Went fishing at Yale lake in Washington this past Saturday for Kokanee. We must have hooked up about 100 fish just to bring in 40 to the boat (four on board at 10 per person). Thanks for the great video! I really enjoy watching and learning from you.
Glad to hear! That's a lot of hookups, awesome. What is the average length of the ones you were getting?
Those are some red fish.
My uncle used to take me kokanee fishing when I was a kid. We'd troll in a rowboat. I was too young to appreciate how good they tasted.
If you guys hadn’t caught those two kokanee, I just might have had a chance at Sulphurous this past weekend 😂 Alas, it was not to be, but my burbot was delicious 😋
I thought we that high pressure system coming in after we left, for sure you'd be slaying....
@@FishingwithRodOh I can assure you that you weren’t the only one who thought that😆
There is some kokanee in Stave lk 😊
yes there is kok's in the stave
but really hard to catch, I have tried many times with no luck, hard to find them on sonar.
or any fish there.
