Full Monte, you may find square buckets used for cat litter, I have 2 on my boat, one is my garbage can, the other my wife's toilet...I know, too much information !!!! I may a new use for one of them for a tackle bucket !

I use the same one also !! Last year I decided to leave one on the bottom of Flaming Gorge so if anyone catches a net, It might be mine !

I have used a 4 inch Pro-Troll rotating flasher with good sucess. You run the squid about 8 to 10 inches behind it and it gives a slow roll like a west coast salmon flasher. They come in a variety of colors, even UV. They work great on trout also. They do tend to twist your line. Some guys run...

I have an 18 crestliner with an I/O. I have a Minn-Kota power drive V-2, 70 lbs of thrust, 24 volts. It can troll the boat for about 4 hours at 1.8 mph. It has auto pilot so I use it alot if I'm by myself. You just set a course and the motor follows it. I can set lines, fight and net fish, and...

I used an Ambassaduer LC this year. It is perfect for Kokes, and the drag is O.K. It is not a shimano, who I think make the best reels. But I'm not spending $170 on a Tekota. I planer board fish alot, and I need to know exactly how far the lures are behind the boat. If you dont want to spend the...

I use 10s if I'm fishing for macs or anything deeper than 50 feet. I use 6s if I'm fishing smaller lures in 25 to 50 feet. The smaller balls really telegraph subtle strikes or hanger-oners. There is more sway back. I will get some 8lb pancakes this winter.

I used braided line this year also. Like it was said, no hum. I also pull the balls in the boat when moving in rough water. The SS cable would scratch or cut the aluminum gunales on my Crestliner, the braid doesnt. What I dont like about it it sometimes doesn't wing good on the spool, and you...

I just read the thread about Humminbird fishfinders and I would like to know if any of the Kokanee guys have one. Before buying a new fishfinder I would check this thing out at Lowrance.com. It looks awesome! It is like high-def for your sonar unit. If anyone has seen it in action, please let us...

I bought one this year and I love it. It telegraghs strikes really well and fighting fish with it is fun. It is a bit soft for flatlining. I have a 7' Vances tackle.

I used a Vances tackle 7'6" spiral wrap rod this year and I love it. I'm going to get another one for next year.

These flashers are designed to rotate slowly when trolled. They are used mostly for salmon. Until recently, no one has made them small enough for Kokes. Hot-spot now makes a 6 incher. They are NOT dodgers...they have a totaly different action.

I hear of guys getting them now and then by accident trolling for rainbows, but just like Palisades, no one talks about targeting Kokes. I have not fished there for a couple of years.

If you guys read my Idaho forum report on Palisades I caught all the fish on a squid behind a 4" Pro-Troll flasher. This small flasher rotates slowly and gives great action to the squid. I never hear of any one using them so here are some pics. I have used the 8" flasher with sqiuds for macs...

This is my first post on KFF and the first time I have ever tried fishing for Kokes on Palisades. We found fish right away in Big Elk Creek, but could not find what they wanted. I threw all the usual pink FG stuff at them and managed only 1 cutty. We changed spots and then came back to Big Elk...
