Downrigger Help

[Jedburton]

I agree with a lot of what bkider has said. Especiallly on the koke stuff. Definitely if you can use mono and something with a good drag. If you can go check out the rockymountain tackle booth at the expo make sure and do it. Jared knows more about kokanee fishing than anyone else i know. As far as lures like bkidder said florescent is good especially pink and orange. Running lures behind dodgers of some sort also helps a lot. As for the downriggers like he said as well I like the ten pound fish or pancake type weights. I was using a cannon sport troll for my manual downrigger but now have a walker electric on one side and a big john electric on the other. Also if you don't already invest some money in a good fishfinder. It will help you know what depth to run your lures. Most of all have fun and catch some good ones. kokes are definitely one of my favorite fish to catch.
