Thread: Fluorescent Green Line

  1. #1

    Default Fluorescent Green Line

    I have 2 rods with fluorescent green line I want to use for kokanee. Will the color negatively affect the kokanee bite ?

    No, Kokanee are not line shy at all. You could use rope if you wanted to.

    Thanks Super D. I would still use fluorocarbon for the leaders but I like seeing exactly where my line is. I wondered it it would affect kokanee. Much appreciated.

    That's true! I've caught kokes before useing a redneck downrigger made from 40' of 3/8" rope and a 6lb ball.

    I started using high-vis line when my grandson started fishing with me so he could see the line better, has not slowed my success at all. If you want to catch other species while fishing for kokes, such as browns, you could run 20" or so of other line off the end of the high-vis.

    David used the symbol for inches but meant feet.
