  • Techniques for Catching Chinook Salmon
    ® TECH KWIKFISH FO R CHINOOK SHEET TECHNIQUES FOR CATCHING CHINOOK SALMON What started over 30 years ago as a local favorite, wrapping a sardine fillet to the belly of large size Kwikfish®, is now the most widely used chinook lure on the West Coast. Kwikfish lures feature high action at all trolling speeds, while their body shape, weight, and lip design make them dive when pulled through the water. Kwikfish can be plunked, trolled or backtrolled with or without weight or in combination with a Jet Diver™. Kwikfish are available in several models ranging in length from 1-3/4 inches for trout up to 5-9/16 inches for salmon. BACKTROLLING With your boat headed upstream above the area you wish to fish, row or run your motor just fast enough to hold your craft even with the current. While holding your boat steady (as if you were anchored), let your diving plug out behind the boat. When you stop letting out line, the current will cause the lure to dive and wiggle. Backtrolling is the process of allowing your boat and trailing lure to slowly slip downstream while resisting the current enough to cause the lure to dive. Knowing that salmon will primarily be found near the bottom, water depth will determine whether you “flatline” your Kwikfish (without a diver or additional weight), or incorporate a Jet Diver or weighted ball as discussed below. FLATLINING The K14, K15 and K16 sized Kwikfish will dive from 8- to 12-feet when trolled or backtrolled on a flat line (without additional weight).

  • Tips for Catching Small Lake Trout
    10-Dec-18 Tips for Catching Small Lake Trout The Wyoming Game and Fish Department and the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources manage Flaming Gorge Reservoir (FGR) to provide fishing opportunities for a variety of anglers, the majority of which visit the reservoir to fish for Kokanee Salmon and Rainbow Trout. Kokanee and Rainbow Trout are not only prized sportfish but also the forage that helps maintain the Trophy Lake Trout population in FGR. Population surveys completed over the last three decades have shown an increase in the abundance of small Lake Trout (e.g., less than 28 inches). If the existing population of small fish is not reduced, there could be too much competition to sustain trophy Lake Trout. Angler harvest is the most viable option for reducing numbers of small Lake Trout. Once Lake Trout obtain a large enough size, they are highly-effective predators that prey heavily on Kokanee and Rainbow Trout. The predator/prey relationship must be managed to maintain balance between all species. In FGR, this relationship is on the verge of imbalance due to the increase in the number of predators, specifically Lake Trout <28 inches. When Lake Trout reach a length of 25-inches, they typically consume fish. If the existing population of small fish (< 28- inches) is not reduced, there will not be enough Kokanee or Rainbow Trout to support the Lake Trout population. Anglers are encouraged to target and harvest Lake Trout <28-inches. Small Lake Trout are delicious and provide substantial fillets when you consider the liberal limit on fish <28-inches.
