Kokanee Trolling Combo This setup is one of our favorites, the Daiwa Lexa Linecounter 100 is such a compact and smooth reel, paired with the perfect light-tackle rod for Kokanee and Trout in any lake or reservoir in the Pacific Northwest and beyond
Rod building truly is a work of art
Cook also used this 4-inch Big Bite Baits Fighting Frog, rigged on a 4/0 Gamakatsu G-Finesse Heavy Cover Worm Hook, with a 1/4-ounce tungsten weight
I generally opt for jerkbaits with natural colors this time of year as the water is often clearer due to the increase in vegetation
You want a frog that walks side to side well so you can cover water and fish a little faster
That includes Texas rigs, jigs, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, frogs, soft plastics, finesse rigs, wacky worms, drop shots, Ned rigs, small swimbaits, and bank-fishing setups
