    Dodger Wallet?

    LOL I have 4 dodger binders that live in their own tackle bag.

    Dodger Wallet?

    I use the big zip binders that were designed for bass fishermen. Then I use my seal o meal and a 3 hole punch to make more slips out of gallon size freezer bags.

    Canning Kokes

    In Idaho, possession ends at your residence door step. This does not include your camper but allows you to can Kokes and not have your home invaded by an officer without a search warrant claiming to look for illegal game.

    Snubbers yes or no

    I use them for early season Kokes as well. Even though I use 9' rods that are very limber and fast, a high jumping Koke with a dodger isn't really on the rod at all times when top lining in the spring. As was mentioned above their mouths take time to toughen up as the season goes along.

    Reports

    I just don't see it. The guys from Cal are expert fishermen and great stewards of biomass. They are used to fishing in much warmer waters and knowing them personally, I know how hard they work to protect the fishery. Maybe you are referring to someone I don't know but I know the major group from...

    2013 Ririe Res. Fishing Thread

    Glad you're out after them. We are doing a lot of hooking this year but it's with our new towing company All Safe Towing. Pulling on things that weigh in at 3,500 lbs or better has been a real rush! Hope to be on the water a bit later in the year!

    Palisades

    Good luck. The kokanee are few and far between as it's mostly a small reproducing population vs. a large planter style lake. Try the dam and over by Big Elk.

    Reel size for lead core

    I have a couple of Penn 209's but you really only need 6 colors and you've maxed out on possible depth at most optimum trolling speeds. I can't imagine spending the money I have into my Calcutta 700's and then loading them with lead core.

    Best voltage on downrigger wire for catching kokes? What to do if too low?

    You really don't need a black box unless your boat tests hot, over .65. If it's under .65, it isn't necessary to mask bad stray currents. That being said, I do think having the correct current can increase your catch rate.

    Home made kokanee lures

    Yeah that's a lot of distance between hooks!

    Home made kokanee lures

    A lot of companies make minis. I prefer the mini Lymans but all of them work.

    Home made kokanee lures

    Tandem #4's. Either Octopus or Sickle. I tie them so the front hook almost touches the eye on the stinger hook much like Dave has pictured.

    Nice Mac! How long did it take to land?

    Home made kokanee lures

    If someone asked me Dave, who do you feel would stand the best chance of making lures successfully in the commercial market place, you would be my choice out of all the people I know. You have a list of qualities that it takes to do it well. You love making tackle. You create things that no one...

    SuperD is one of the most talented non commercial makers on the boards!
