I think they would work well for trolling... may even happen cross bass while trolling LOL

I watched a video yesterday of a guy using them to jig for walleye. I bet they'd work for kokanee that way too.

I used them years ago on Coldwater and Castle Lakes up by Mt. St. Helens. I rigged them up with a single barbless hook due to restrictions on these lakes at the time. Skunked in 4hrs at Coldwater but caught 3 in Castle in a couple hours if I remember correctly. Cast them out from the bank.
I still have the two lures (brass and chrome) and don't know who made them. Hadn't been used unless I come across these restrictions again.

Hmm. I might order one just for the heck of it.

A kokanee is a land locked sockeye salmon.

ok thanks not meaning to get to much off topic but by lake trout I guess your referring to the species lake trout?

 

[the_intimidator03]

lake trout has several other names that it goes by including mackinaw and lake trout... there are other names but those are the two used most commonly around here. They are a type of char.

yea I fish lake superior for them a lot if anyone comes to Michigan and wants to catch some I can point you in the right direction and I think they might be named after a town in Michigan
