I have been fishing Green Peter for about a month and have learned a lot in that time. The first thing I learned is that you have to have the correct rod for Kokanee jigging. A medium spinning rod with a sensitive tip. I purchased a $50 Ugly Stick and strung it with 8lb dacron line. The dacron line does not have the stretch in it that mono does. With the correct rod and line, you get a good hook set. I found with my light trout rod, I was not feeling the fish and when I did, I missed the strike. Take a variety of jigs and buzz bombs. You can launch your canoe on the far side of the dam (an easy launch with a canoe) and its maybe a two minute paddle out to the boom, where you can tie off and jig. That way, if the wind comes up, you can be off the lake quickly (which you may need to do). I would recommend launching really early, say 6a.m. That should give you several hours until the wind comes up. Tip your jig with Green Giant shoe peg white corn. I scent mine with bloody tuna and let it marinate overnight, which has been working good lately. Don't assume the fish are at 30'. One day they can be shallow, the next day they can be deeper. I set my reel to crank backwards and since I get about 2' for every crank, 15 cranks backward would equal about 30'. Try different depths, until you find the fish, or ask someone fishing nearby that is having success. You may go a few hours w/o a bite and then get bit a lot. Kokanee are schooling fish, so they come and go. Best of luck to you.
