If you get a chance to troll, Pink Hoochies will kill 'em.
And Detroit does have 'em.
BTW, Thuggin' is quite right. They are VERY tasty. And they are just about the best SMOKED fish you will ever have!
Fishing for kokanee off the bank is difficult but not impossible, I heard they do it off detroit dam and off fishermans bridge on green peter maybe of the dam there as well. I would use a buzz bomb, crippled herring, or nordic jig 1/2 - 5/8 oz, I have always found that the flame color seems to produce well. retrieve in jigging motion throwing slack on the down swing, fish will a lot of times pick up lure when it is falling so watch your line. Another lure that works good is a 1/2 oz bananna sinker painted with red nail polish, just attach a split ring and a treble hook. At times this has outfished the three jigs metioned above. good luck,tight lines
Brookiebuster - THANKS for the boat escape referral, a TERIFFIC resource!!!
It's a little early for koke's; but they can be found by flat-lining. And you can pick up 'bows--and maybe a Chinokanee too--while trolling.
Hope that someone will chime in, and help you out. If you don't get any responses; try again next month (and again in April). That's when the fishery warms up.
