Once you start fishing for these bad boys, you’ll be snagged. No joke! The most popular way to land your bag of Kokonee Salmon is to snagging them with a treble hook after the spawn. During this time, the spawning male will display a Long snout, arched back, and they will have a pinkish red to orange color. The females will appear a bluish green along the back with silvery sides. For a more rewarding challenge tackle the monsters, before the spawn. Not only will the fish provide a better fight, but they will also be firmer and healthier. Try trolling in the summer between 50 and 90 feet deep. Your best bet is to entice them with a downrigger.
