There are many quality Kokanee rods on the market. Over the years I've tried a variety but settled on these brands for their quality and performance. Here I discuss why I prefer these rods for my various downrigger and dropper rig fishing for Kokanee as well some other cheaper alternatives.

Not only are those Santiam Kokanee rods amazing, the company itself is awesome. I have 2 of those rods, and broke the tip on one of them loading it in my car. I called Santiam and told them what happened and they sent me out a new tip that same day. Another awesome video Tyler.
Great tips as usual. Thank you.
Great info 👍🏻🇨🇦
From your other video I got two Abu Garcia Max's from your link as well as two Santiam rods and I was curious how much weight I should use and now I know. Thanks and great video!
Depends how deep u want to fish
I just bought the xcc’s from Lamiglas… hands down the best light trolling rod I’ve ever used.
Good medium grade rods, haven't tried the Santiam but can't wrap my head around the point of a 4 piece rod... My favorites right now are NW Rods 8' 1 piece, you can feel the kokanee all the way to the handle, great with lead and the D.R.
Awesome!
EDGE RODS just came out with a nice higher end 7'6 kokanee rod. Gonna go break it in on Wallowa in a few days.
Can you do a video showing exactly which accessories you use on your line and how you rigged them up? Thx for another solid video
If you subscribe to the channel you can go back and see every video Tyler has made about fishing for Kokanee. I knew absolutely nothing about Kokanee, but after watching Tyler’s clear and concise videos I was able to catch Kokanee on my first outing.
Since you use "short" rods trolling (and you seem not worried about lines crossing) do you stagger the two lines (length and/or depth) if so, what is the length/depth of both lines, and do you mix your dodgers/lure setup? I know the mathematical possibilities are endless LOL but do you have a general guidelines?
I’m definitely looking into this rod or the Paulina peak rod
They just came back in stock! Get one while they last
Just ordered one looking forward to trolling with it
Im wondering if you have ever heard of hover fishing the Upper Columbia around the Chelan Falls area. Ive fished eggs up there before and have been sucsessful but not real hover fishing. I want to have another alternative when my spinners and superbaits are not working. I wanted to get your idea before I invest money into it. Thanks!
Never seen anyone hover eggs at Chelan Falls
This is totally a shot in the dark. You have a video that discusses the nutrient density in a reservoir as the snow melts come into the reservoir. I cannot find that video, does someone have the link? Thank you.
Hello, I like that red rod you used a lot will get one through you links. Question about color of your flasher, what are your recommendation on the flasher colors you've been using? Thank you
My favorites are the nickel moon jelly, pink/purple net wing, brass/nickel, and nickel chartreuse/orang net wing
@@spiltmilt Hello Tyler, I just started to do Kokanee fishing I had learned a lot from your video. Thank you so much, please keep those video come in.
Tyler, perhaps you need to give the companies you are going to recommend a “heads up” before doing a video featuring their products. I checked both links and the Santiam was “out of stock” and the Paulina Peak site showed nothing under Kokanee rods. Certainly not your fault, but I’m sure these vendors would benefit from increased sales if they had the items you featured in stock.
Santiam rods seem to always be out of stock and a very long wait for if you male an order
A big part of the issue is supply chains worldwide have been up-ended by covid. Its the same story with many manufacturers
Any thoughts on the Okuma Kokanee Black or the Okuma SST Kokanee? I have both and really enjoy the sst.... I’m still testing the Kokanee black model as I find it’s slow action good but the weight of the rod feels much heavier and the balance seems so different then my sst... curious if you could test one of these out too and let us know what you think.
Thanks
I have a whole slew of the sst’s but also just acquired 2 of the black rods at the 9ft length. So far I really love the action on them.
I like the SST's for flat lining and light lead never used the Kokanee blacks.
Kokanee BLACKS are great for lead rods, ran 4-5 oz on them
Well Spilt Milt, you caused a run on their rods and Santiam sold out lol. I think my order may have gone through...
Can you share who makes the net you have in this video?
Ranger nets
What do you think about the okuma Kokanee black rods?
Not fished them so I can't say
@@spiltmilt ok thanks for the reply
Is the Paulina Peak Rod not available yet?
Apparently not
I've never seen them in stock and I've been stalking their website since the last video Tyler mentioned them in. Got any dropper rig rod alternatives? I've been using the velocity kokanee ninja rods for flat lining, idk if they could handle a 4 or 5oz weight though.
@@gameopsdkI have not started using downriggers yet so I use up to 6 oz of weight. I spoke with Jay at Santiam Fishing Rods and explained to him what I was doing and he recommended I use the 8'6" long line rod for anything up to 3 oz of weight and the 7'6" downrigger rod for weights in the 4-6 oz range. I bought two of each and I have used weights all the way up to 6 oz per his recommendation and it seems to be working well.
