Learn how to read your fishfinder electronics and understand what you're seeing. The key to easy limits is controlled depth fishing with downriggers so you're placing your lures exactly where the fish are feeding.

    Hi Allen and Thank you for sharing you Knowledge on Kokanee fishing. In this last video you talked about a hot boat and how it would not catch fish ?? Not sure what you mean . Do you have another video out on this because I struggle to catch them in my boat.

    • @AlanFong
      @AlanFong  2 года назад

      A hot boat is where you get a negative charge off your DR cable which repels fish. If you zig zag and catch one here and there you have a hot boat. I'm showing how to test to see what's coming off your DR in next video. You need a digital volt meter and while your trolling put meter on DC voltage at the lowest setting. Put negative side on ground and red positive on wire cable and you will get a reading if it is negative you have a hot boat. Scotty makes a black box to correct the problem.

    Hey Alan, where do they plant kokanee at bullards? And thanks again for another great video!

    • @AlanFong
      @AlanFong  Год назад +1

      When they plant the lakes most of the time they release them at the boat ramp. At Bullards it be at the dam or Dark Day ramp

      Union Vally is very tough. It opened last week and I know a guide who went and caught one trout n one kokanee and he knows that lake. New Melones, Pardee, Bullards & Stampede are the best lakes

    Can you use lead line if no downriver is available?

    • @AlanFong
      @AlanFong  2 года назад

      I always start my day trolling with leadcore line and most of the time I will hook up on it before I can get my DR rod out! Most of the time you can use leadcore for koks. Only when I have to get down deeper than 60 ft its hard.

    • @salvadorpuga9184
      @salvadorpuga9184 2 года назад +1

      What is your lead core setup ,I heard you mention using lead core at stampede on Seps outdoors radio show, I'm interested and new at using it when we're not using a downrigger thanks for the info much appreciated!

    • @AlanFong
      @AlanFong  2 года назад +2

      I like using a lead core set up as it always produces. Need a soft tip rod as I use a fiberglass rod and the reel is a ABU 6500 that holds ten colors 12# test lead core line. Then I tie on a 30ft piece of ten pound test mono leader. Then dodger and skirt. Every color you let out gives you about 6-7ft per color. after 8 colors the line will bow up so 8 colors will be max

      @@AlanFong okay that's great! I've got seven colors of 15 lb test lead core everything else in my setup is the same including the type of rod ,I got it from Cal Kellogg I also did have a Abu 6500 line counter that I got at the fisherman's Warehouse in Manteca as I spent all my stimulus money on tackle until some thieves stole it from me when I was at flag City before headed out to pirate's lair, I just saw your video with your producer and her mom you guys sure have a good time just like when you're with that Warren guy what a couple of characters jeez!

    Alan, it looked like you were using a lamiglass Jarod rod I just busted mine... a giant fish broke it.... can't lie I stepped on it. I'm trying to buy another one off of your video but can't figure out how to do it. I went to description and clicked on # lamiglass, that just sent me to lamiglass videos. Help please.

    How far back do you go for your set back on a downrigger

    • @AlanFong
      @AlanFong  2 года назад +1

      How far you clip your line in is very important. The closer to the cable the more radical your dodger will move. When using one line out I usually only set it back 8-10 ft. The next video coming out I describe how far back I set them.

      Yes you can and now is probably a better time as the water temp rises they go deeper. I would toss a 1/8 or 1/4oz kastmaster and flutter it to the bottom and jerk it back but when you get closer to the bank reel fast or you will snag
