The main issue I have with your newest video is that there’s so much footage of you two reeling the fish in. I just think it would be much better if you mounted the GoPro to the rack up on top, or a chest mount- I want to see the pole bouncing and jumping. I do love the info, and help. I have never been to NM, I think if I do go, I’ll have a better chance. But you have all the right stuff, I just think you could change it up a tiny bit, and the videos would get double the likes and a lot more subscribers. Kokanee content is very popular right now.

Thank you for taking the time to offer these suggestions. It is a great help to have constructive feedback. I’ve got an additional camera now and will be experimenting with better angles in the final product. Thanks again for sharing Tight lines.

Man what an amazing video! Thanks for the great info! Im gonna try new malones this weekend for the first time this weekend. Thank you for the tips. Any spots i should look for them? Thanks for pointing out that area New sub earned!

Thanks so much As you saw in the video the fish have been spread out in the morning and shallow. This week will still be cool look at the surface temperature when you start and a temperature probe like the “fish Hawk” becomes more helpful as the season progresses Kokanee don’t tolerate warmer temperatures ( above 58deg F ) and will be feeding in the colder water as long as there is light penetration to produce the organisms they feed on. Hit that point I marked and then go West North West and along that West shore line if the fish are shallow you won’t see them on the graph but keep changing up presentations until you hit on something they find offensive enough to strike at Then game on and tight lines
