If you had to choose 25 lures for a koke trip, what would you take?

Well, this has been an enlightening thread. And I was correct....I don't have 90% of the lures named by you guys in my tackle box. Not one of you mentioned Wee Tads. Are they not working any more? If not, I just bought $120 worth of worthless tackle.

I purchased some Wee-Tads this year and used them for the first time at Flaming Gorge. I put them on when nothing else was working and caught a few kokes within an hour on one trip. I also caught some rainbows and macks on them. I don't think many guys use them here, but I wanted to try something different.

I purchased around 12 wee-tads when I first started chasing koks around 6 years ago after reading in Dave Biser's book on kokanee that they knocked em dead up at the lake I fish on "wee-tads". I really haven't given them much time, as we have had good results with apex's. I have since repainted most of the wee-tads to brighter glow kok colors, and plan to try them out next season. They do have a real good action, might try adjusting the leader between the lure and hooks like mentioned in the book. I did this on apex's this year and had good results with hook set backs of 6" and 12".
