If you are given lemons make lemonade. To a kokanee fisher rainbow trout are lemons. I could not keep them off my lines. So I got a limit of trout as food for my neighbor and a couple for the smoker.
Lines in the water 7:20am and I quit at 10. I tried to keep them off. They came to the hook from the surface (as I was clipping the line on the down rigger) to 35 feet down. I filmed whole time I was out. On the film I didn’t see any kokanee. It is amazing how long trout will follow lures.
It was heavily overcast with clouds and some sprinkles. The air temperature was in the 50’s with the water temp being almost 64 degrees.
I used Wannafish A Lure prototypes lures, Rocky Mountain Bahama Mama 5.5 inch, Dick Nite Pink Spaltter, Hypnosis dodgers , and a blade spinner (to use as a attractor) that I made but it got stuck. Anise, garlic, and kokanee scents on corn.
