Hot Kokanee Bite
The last week and a half has produced a great kokanee bite at New Melones. I put three groups of guys on the fish with plenty of action. Kokanee can be a frustrating fish to catch with their soft mouths, but with the amount of fish that are in the lake the odds of landing what you want are pretty good. there is also the possibility to catch a nice trout.

Nice Trout to be caught at New Melones
The day started slow, but then picked up. We found the trout later in the morning. After 11:00 or so we caught and released 3 Brown Trout weighing over 6lbs and caught a Rainbow that was in the 4lb class which was kept for dinner
