![What is the Best Bait for Kokanee? [Maggots vs Corn]](/img/n.gif)
Never catch a Kokanee before, I will this weekend. Thanks for the tips.
I dig the new intro! I’ve never fished for Kokanee but after watching your videos I feel like I would have a successful day.
They are fun...I get them every year, but they don't hold my attention because they are all the same size usually...
This is a great video Cal. I caught my first Koke accidentally while trout fishing. Then I started targeting them. I had success and then I got a downrigger and a fish finder and all the different Koke lures etc. Soon I was managing all the extra stuff I had instead of actually fishing.
Went with a buddy, I had all the gear and he was catching them from a kayak with a wedding ring and no bait. Very simple and eye opening.
Here is California corn is the most popular thing for tipping, but salmon eggs, pieces of shrimp and various types of PowerBait and Gulp! is used too. I've got them from time to time on lures with no bait and I've also gotten them on really big baits not intended for kokanee...
THanks for some straight, funny info, CAL.
Hey Jackson...Shoot me an email....I'd love to chat with you a bit.... calkellogg@fishsniffer.com Thx c
Damn, Cal, sure do wish I could spend a few hours in a boat with you! Fun and fish...dynamite!!
Gotta hand it to ya Cal, I'm dying laughing here!!! Gr8 vid man!
Thank You Chris!
Love the KISS attitude! What lures do you like to use for Bullards?
I gave up on corn 3 years ago and won't go back. Berkley maggots for me. Like you, I only have 3 or 4 different scents, but I get them in 3 different colors also. I use maggots exclusively with trolling flies for Kokanee and it's been good enough for me I'll keep using these.
I'm really enjoying the channel, Cal. Even if we do different things, I really dig hearing how you fish.
Yes those maggots work, so do those little round baits they call crappie nibbles....
Maggots release and natural enzyme scientifically proven
@@FHSTackle Funny you should say that about crappie nibbles. Besides trout I've caught bluegills and crappie using corn. I haven't been freezing my corn, I worry about the freezer burn killing the taste. But if you're catching kokanee on previously frozen corn then I guess it's fine! The added ProCure scent is just the ticket. I haven't heard about salt and sugar before, but it makes sense.
I love it! Good luck today.
Thank You...We got them...Anise corn worked the best...
Hey Cal, another great video! I'm glad I found you on UA-cam; I remember reading Fish Sniffer magazine in the tackle store growing up. I was wondering if you've tried the Pro Cure Bait Waxx and if you had any thoughts on it versus the super gel? I really like the super gel but the bait wax looks like it'd do the same thing but with less mess.
Yes I've used the solid stuff...Works the same way...But I'm naturally messy anyway...LOL
Subscribed because of real talk.
Awesome!!!
No worries makes sense
Love it all but the freezer burn part,if you crab in the ocean with freezer-burn,"your burnt ",if you catfish same thing"freezer burn freezer burnt ,you should get aboard ,no hate all love!🎯📐📬📡📣✏📝
Lol, loved the vid Cal !!! 👍
Thank You
Most important is to buy the new season lures and dodgers as those fish won’t bite last years fashion. Amazing how hundreds can be spent without even realizing two lures at a time.
LOL....yep....kokanee tackle salesman are cut from the same cloth as bow shop salesman (so I'm told...I, thankfully, don't bow hunt)
nice video , interesting , will it's works for stocked trout ?
You Bet!
We have fun on forums saying we were using NCS (natural corn scent) on our corn, gets guys all confused trying to figure out what special scent we are using. For me I tend to put procure Kokanee Special on my corn most of the time, 15 years ago I had at least a dozen scents on my boat on any given day but I found that more often than not koke special was enough.
Yes!!!! Keep it simple!
Do you put your supergels on your lures only? Or on your lures and dodgers?
Usually just a tiny bit right on the corn when I'm kokanee fishing....I put it on the rear end of my trout lures and plugs...
Fish Hunt Shoot Productions Gotcha, thanks Cal. Keep up the good work.
Have you used garlic for sent?
Every body uses garlic since most salmon spieces have Italians in their family tree.
Cal, until you showed the ( Pro-Cure ) Bloody Tuna gel. I thought Oh SHIT ! ! ! Cal just put ** Pro-Cure ** OUT of business with one UA-cam video. LOL. These KOKE'S smell parts per BILLION, and you may NOT believe this, but I was fishing Diamond Lake for their huge trout, and I caught a couple trout that swam up from Shasta Lake... Hahahahahaha.. Powerful stuff.
I have known about peg corn for years and years my secret is I leave. It in the can works great.
I use white shoepeg and tuna oil period!!!!
Does anyone know why corn is so effective? I can’t think of anything in their natural environment that looks or smells like corn, so why is the fish’s brain so triggered by the stuff?
Michael Lutz I’ve read the corn has amino acids that trigger bites
I've always been told that corn gives off a water soluble sweet scent and that it gives the kokanee a distinct target to strike at...
the corn is the bullseye on the target for the Kokanee. Gulp maggots work great also.
@@monarchmark1967 Yes!
My backup choice is oil!
10w-30?
But why do u need corn on the first place? I am a crappie angler but it seems to me fish should eat a moving hoochie just fine without stupid corn
You would think so but you’ll catch 10x more kokanee with the corn…
@@FHSTackle interesting, i asked several people and everyone told me the same thing, but nobody told me why. Theres gota be a reason
LOL....if I was makin' this vid it would be "if plain don't work and anise don't work I'm switching to beer drinkin' back at the house"....but, yeah, I need to remember to check back on this thread as it certainly has entertainment potential.
Hahaha
Lol! Great video cal. I was laughing my butt off. Don’t tell that to Rustic Rob, he makes a living off tuna in oil. 😉
Hahaha...Rob catches lots of fish....If you have confidence go for it....Honestly if you never used anything but corn out of the can, you'd get plenty of fish....
tbh i only use bloody tuna and plain
Yep...It's not complicated....
Haha. Isn't simple just plain corn?
Shoepeg all day
Yes...Plain corn...It works well....
You need to get a the boat with a big bunch of bananas and see if they let go or leave you on the dock. Now fish don't know how a banana tastes so you should be fine. Enjoy
green giant white shoepeg corn>>>>
Well that's fine if you think the can looks cool enough....
Fish Hunt Shoot Productions theres a huge green guy on the can i think thats pretty perfect
And it’s 99 cents
3 cans of corn for $8. Wow it's true. A fool is born every day and most of them live. I get a can of corn from the store for 59 cents. Now tell me how great that can cover is. Probably canned in the same plant.
Shoepeg corn is more expensive than sweet corn
Fish CAN smell oil!!!
Not according to scientists….
@@FHSTackle catfish say am I a joke to you
Love the KISS attitude! What lures do you like to use for Bullards?
Well yesterday we did the best with a pink hoochie running behind a 6 inch pink and chrome Sling Blade...
