Chuck your at the wrong lake. Your at the small one. The one Matt is talking about is out of Arlington. It has a very good launch. The lake is good for big Cutthroat. It's not a lake for car toppers, When the wind comes up you are glad your in a bigger boat. To my knowledge I have never heard of Kokanee being caught but I have been wrong before. This lake is good for water skiers and jet skis as it has homes all around it. But good luck anyway Jim S.
