You may want to do a search, as a couple of people have posted that they caught them while fishing for trout or Kokes. You could probably use a veriety of trout gear and be effective.

I have not caught any, course I have not been up there this year either.

Good luck.

I've only fished GP a couple times so far this year, but I did get two of the Chinooks (both about 17") and that was when I was jigging by the dam.
Half ounce Pink/Pearl Gibbs minnow with shoepeg corn on the hooks.

Past years, most of them have come by trolling Wedding Rings.

I have caught them on just about everything. Pink pearl buzz bombs work great.

For trolling the F4 flatfish pictured below knocked the snot out of them in the fall.

I do not really fish GP this time of the year but I imagine the same flat fish long lined if they are on top or on a down rigger would get em now.

Good luck

None yesterday, but every other trip I have. I don't target them, but there seems to be plenty.
