Its Kokanee time on the Gunnison River and the South Platte, in Colorado. These landlocked salmon, roam through the Blue Mesa (Gunnison) and Elevenmile (south Platte) reservoirs for 3 or so years and then like their saltwater cousins return in the autumn to spawn and then die. These are truly a unique fishing opportunity. Popular flies for these include midge nymph patterns and small Bh Glo Bugs, a double rigging is common.
