I love kokanne fishing in the summer when everyone else is after stocker trout. Hell i love to fish anytime i can. Saturday the weather was a bit cold but not too windy so me and a friend hit Lake Meridian for a few hours. Fishing was far from hot but we managed 5 kokanne and 4 trout in alittle over three hours. All fish caught trolling smaller needlefish behind a flasher or flasher with a crappie tube rigged like a hootchie. all fish also caught between 30and 40'. Only one guy fishing the docks and he caught one he said. not a bad day to get out at all

Thanks Mallard, only 4 more indoor soccer games then might actually have a free weekend :mrgreen:

Is that treble hook your stinger on that setup? I never have trouble keeping them hooked up with the stock single hook, but that might be killer for short striking days.

If so, do you put you shoepeg corn on the single or treble hook? Or skip it all together and just use DNA?

 

[ImaginThat]

Yep a small treble, usually just run the corn on the sigle hook. I forget who was runnin a small treble in some of last years koke threads?

 

[Kokanee Kid]

2 pieces of white corn on the front hook, and you can use any kind of white corn as long as it is jolly green giant white shoepeg corn

And don't forget the DNA scent too Tup:

 

[sparky]

Saweeet. Any general rules on matching the treble to the single? Looks like the treble hook almost fits inside the single.

Did you go to this setup due to all the thrashing at the boat? Unless by myself, I bring them so fast towards and into the
net they don't get a chance to realize they can alligator roll around.

I would not even try another corn type. I would go without it first.

I have not tried the DNA yet, I just relied on a drop of anise on my flasher.

 

[GURU]

Now that is funny, I just went and bought a bunch of stuff last night for them beautiful Kokes, Hey Cmessling, I usually always have room for another on the boat during Koke time, I can't wait to see some of KK's threads when it comes time Tup:

The treble is slightly smaller than the single, it's just more of a insurance hook for those short strikes and when that fish puts that single in a soft spot that rips out they are usually wearin that treble either as a tounge piercing or face jewelery. Might have to try the DNA, but never really had problems with Anise and the green giant

Try the DNA scent ... you will be shocked at the difference. Rob made a believer out of me last year Tup:

 

[fishing bear]

I second tyring the DNA scent my hooking rate went up 50 % using it.
