15 lb spider wire. Can't beat the added strength with a small diameter line. I think the next time I respool I'll rig all of my koke rods with fisherman's marine house braid. I love the 50lb I use...

Crescent is a easy lake to fish and the fish are descent sized with a five fish limit. Fishing the usual suspects such as hoochies and dodgers as well as lake trolls will work, although I prefer not...
I've caught more kokanee on them at lbc then bull trout. So maybe you're on to something..
I've used kokaneetackle.com quite a few times. They are awesome!
My first order happened to be a few days before they moved to Portland so Joe dropped off my order in person at my girlfriend's...
Amen brotha!
Gotta rebuild my carb before I make it out there and money is tight. 4moremney4moremney101punch101101flip101101bananna101101horse101101horse101 But I'm gonna get me some...
Last season I experimented with dying my corn and found that koolaid worked really well. Especially raspberry, which turned it a pinkish color. Grape worked well too. Don't ask me why. But it did out...
You will not be dissointed with the lami's. Best action I've used. Especially the red jj I have. Don't have the white but the classic glass is great too!
I've caught three coho on the red jj as...
I had the same problem with the silicone on my net that I did last year. It doesn't move through the water well either. But I suppose the rubber nets are not much better.
Kokerook, have you tried...
Believe it or not it sinches to the eye just fine, and even when I'm using 15lb with number 4 gamis. Never had any loosen or move for that matter.
I've always done it the way Dragonfly shows. Very easy and quick. Especially when tying fifty or so in a night.
With larger fish I'll just add two half hitches at the end of the knot process
I ran across these a couple years ago. But not this brand. They've been using them in the Great Lakes for a long time to target chinook and coho.
I always wondered why I haven't seen anyone using...
I believe the current your thinking of is caused by the cable from the DR. Not the ball.
Traditionally the coated balls are for longevity. Especially in the salt.
But hey, I'm sure you improved...
I'll be there. +1 on the weather. I got lucky on all four of my trips last year
I just bought these and can't wait to get them on Thursday. They're UV

I can't wait! I had the worst luck this last summer! The two trips I made out I lost three fish and missed out on the huge run!
Made up for it on the upper willamette coho though.101ok101
Sadly...
Afdan52, Add water to your ice.
DLM I thought it was you I got the idea from, but didn't wanna give the credit if it wasn't.
Thanks! It's worked great!
I use a slurry. I used to just toss my fish in the slurry but I noticed that I was indeed getting belly burn like someone on here had mentioned might happen.
Since then I still use a slurry but I...
Kokerook you'd be surprised! Looks like it'll fish to me.
I've had some down right ugly experimental lures that caught plenty of fish. Was it consistent? No.
But you never know until you try.
I...
I run 18" leader on my wedding rings and I retie them with two hooks. The 18" is for lake trolls. I'll run about 12" off my dodgers.
I don't feel they need as much action imparted as a hoochie for...
Cameron black most definitely knows what he's talking about. He's a hell of a salmon/steel guide as well.
I've seen both his Mersin episodes from angler west and the guy is a talented koke...
Awesome! It is a nice campground. Me and my girl just prefer south twin.(or I should say my girlfriend requires a cabin)
Hope you get into lots and lots!
If you have any other questions I'll help...
Ha! I get it now....
If I was you I would split your trip in half. Go to Odell half the week and go to wickiup the other half(you won't regret it).
Both have 25 fish limits and the fish in wickiup are larger and have...
Dragonfly; Those Alvin's are very similar to the brads wobblers. Which I've been using since I first started koke fishing. They come with with the siwash hook as well. I'll switch back and forth...
Whoops, double post
