Strawberry Reservoir (Blue Ribbon):Fishing forecast (June through August): Kokanee salmon: Kokanee fishing is typically best from mid-May through July, and gradually tapers off as the kokanee begin to transition for spawning in late August. Finding and fishing at the correct depths for kokanee is critical. As the water warms during the summer, kokanee will generally move to deeper, cooler water. We recommend trolling in the mornings (before sunrise) or later evenings at 1.52.0 miles per hour. Early in the season, start targeting the shallower water (1020 feet) early in the day, and move to deeper water (2550 feet) later in the day if needed. Later in the summer, the kokanee will generally all be in deeper water (3050 feet). Using good fish-finding equipment will help you to focus your efforts where fish are most likely to be. You can also run lines at multiple depths to find fish. For tackle, various colored dodgers trailing a brightly colored (pink, purple, orange, chartreuse, etc.) hoochie squid rig work well. Various other brightly colored small rigs and lures also work well. Have a variety of colors and styles handy and change them up often to find the color and lure that works best, as it can change from day to day. We recommend tipping the squid or lure with manufactured maggot-style baits, corn, salmon egg, small live baits (maggots, worms, etc.), salad shrimp and/or various scents. Kokanee can be caught almost anywhere out in the open, deeper water; however, there are often hotspots where they seem to concentrate and are biting the best. Once you find kokanee, continue trolling back through the same areas until the bite subsides. Cutthroat and rainbow trout: Both species can be caught by trolling with kokanee gear. Trolling and actively casting spoons and other similar metallic lures, inline spinners, hard minnow baits and soft plastics (such as tube and curly tailed jigs) is also effective. Fly fishing from float tubes can also produce high catch rates during the summer. Being able to get your lures and flies down to deeper depths (2550 feet for cutthroat, and 2035 feet for rainbows) during hotter times of the summer can be very important. Generally, anglers tend to catch more cutthroat trout when trolling than they do rainbow trout. Bait fishing, however, can produce more rainbow trout for anglers in certain areas, such as the Meadows, shoreline areas on the Soldier Creek side and the Ladders. When fishing from shore, we recommend using scented trout dough baits, or a nightcrawler paired with a marshmallow fished 12 feet off of the bottom or behind a casting bubble. Again, even when fishing from shore, finding steeper shorelines where you can cast out to deeper or cooler water can yield more fish during the hot summer months. Tube jigs are effective year round at Strawberry Reservoir, particularly for cutthroat trout. When fishing with tube jigs, we recommend green- and white-colored ones tipped with a small piece of nightcrawler to cover the end of the hook. Tubes can be trolled, jigged vertically or drifted slowly. Fishing tubes below a bobber, behind a casting bubble or with a slip bobber rig can also produce fish. Bites on tube jigs can be light, so be ready to set the hook. (May 30, 2025)
