My Wife Caught More Fish than Me!

My wife picked the winning setup and caught more kokanee than me on Ten Mile Lake.

Haha. I'm glad you liked the video. We had fun that day.

That was awesome! Great vid guys. 👍 Wife kicked my butt in the boat so many times I can't even count. You guys definitely have you're system down too. Right on.✌️🎣👍🐟

[@FougereFamilyAdventures]

Thanks. I'm glad you liked it.

Those look like delicious fish!

[@FougereFamilyAdventures]

They are 😃

[@bruced1429]

its quite funny that at times only one rod on only one side of the boat catches fish. So it must be the pink shirt which is the lucky icon this time. Ben needs a pink shirt if he is going to catch more fish than the misses.

I've often rhought about trying a pink shirt to see if it made a difference. 😃

The pink shirt makes a difference 💗 just saying.... proof is in the video!

@@Sarah_oFo having been married nearly 40 yrs I always knew my wife had magical powers when she out fished me ( when I let her Ha ha ) She used a green hoodie on me with great success even when pregnant in our canoe while reading a book.

Releasing Kookanee? .. . With the mortality of released Kookanee especially in summer why would you target after you have your limit?

[@ianwagner8139]

What studies show kookanee have bad catch and release mortality?

[@FougereFamilyAdventures]

I have yet to see a study that shows how high the mortality rate is. This was also earlier this year when the water temperatures were colder. You are correct about kokanee not handling catch and release well. It is recommended to keep them in the water and not to handle them with your hands if you need to release them. We continued to fish until I got my limit. That was the only kokanee we released that day (other than all the other kokanee that kept getting off before the boat). What I did not show you was how many rainbow trout we caught trolling as well. We enjoyed catching both species until I got my limit and then we went home.
