The guides have long limber rods for the barbless hooks. The keeping rod tips near water is so they don't have to look up to see bites happening.....second factor. Steaight out, angled back and straight back is gear separation for preventing tangles or crosses. This is in addition to using the most weight forward and shallow, then less weight and more line out as they progress to the back of the boat. Allows fast maneuvering
Thanks for this video it looks a bit challenging in that small boat but you guys work well together. It doesn't matter how old you get or how much you fish that old gag jerking on the line gets you every time:) Classic!
I got some good advice from (every bit outdoors) and it really works. "The hook setup needs to be combined with a shorter and stiffer rod. It’s also important to set your rod holders at a 45-degree angle more toward the back of the boat, and not pointing out to the side. You also need to tighten your drag fairly tight for the strike, then loosen it a little when fighting the fish. No hook set either" Rod tip near the water for more direct contact with the fish.
I live in Republic (about 2 hours away) I have been waiting for the number of boats to go down a bit. Since I fish alone, I am wondering how many boats were there when you were? Its hard to fight a fish, net and steer at the same time.
It’s really not that hard the only thing is showing up early enough to where you don’t get stuck in line for ever. Everyone is very nice for the most part and fighting the fish isn’t so bad just crank em in
Love the content. I am an amateur fisherman and I have been Kokanee fishing for about five years and I am still learning. I would like to learn more about tying lures and hybrid hoochies. Wondering who you would recommend for me to purchase products from for this. Thanks for your help and I love your channel. Also where can I go buy some of your products
Thanks a ton! Kokanee fishing is a ton of fun! I use purple taco supply online as well as salmon elixir. They are both great places to start! My site is walkingonwater.us/
I went today for the first time ever. I only caught one. I guess I need spinner blades. I’m new to this. I hope to keep learning from you. Where can I get those spinners ?
I make them my self brotha! I also sell all of the components that I use on my site! But the easy was is just 4 to 5. 5mm beads with a little smiley blade also try using small spin glows
Angles are obtuse, right or acute. What is what you call a "tight angle?" I don't understand what you mean. Are you referring to the line in the water?? You have downriggers so.....????
@@daveengstrom9250 we were just using the rod holders on the downriggers. So I was more so saying when the rod tip is closest to the water you get the most accurate depth with your gear from the line counter than if the rod is sticking up in the sky

@@walkingonwaterfishingI’ll check it out thanks ! What speed and depth did you fish at?
@@abeabe9000 I was going to .8-.9 mph and I hate 4 oz at 24 ft on the line counter and 6oz at 20 on the line counter all 3 days
