KwikFish For Chinook

® Luhr Jensen Technical Information Sheet #8822-561,Techniques for Catching Chinook Salmon Using Kwikfish
TECH SHEET KWIKFISH FOR CHINOOK
By Buzz Ramsey
What started over 30 years ago as a local favorite,
wrapping a sardine fillet to the belly of large size
Kwikfish ®,is now the most widely used salmon combi-nation
on the West Coast.Sacramento River anglers
were the first to successfully use Kwikfish in combina-tion
with bait for Chinook Salmon.This bulletin
focuses on the proper use of this high-action plug,how
to correctly add a sardine fillet,plus some rigging tips
that will help you catch more salmon.
The Luhr Jensen Kwikfish is a "banana-shaped"
plug that has high action at even slow trolling speeds.
Its body shape,weight,and lip design make it a great
diving lure.It can be plunked,trolled or backtrolled
from a boat and fished on a flatline (without a weight),
in combination with a Jet Diver ™or with a sinker
depending on river size,water depth,or current speed.
Bank anglers use this popular lure by employing the
cast/swing/retrieve method.
BACKTROLLING
With your boat headed upstream above the area you
wish to fish,row or run your motor just fast enough to
hold even with the current,as though you were an-chored.
Work your lure downstream below your boat.
When you stop letting out line,the current will cause
your lure to dive and wiggle.Then allow your boat to
slowly slip downstream,keeping the lure actively work-ing
in the current as you back your boat and trailing lure
downstream through the holding water.

How to troll for Salmon
Posted by glock on Monday, November 28, 2005 (04:12:59) (9190 reads)
WHY FISH BITE -- Rule #1. The most important fundamental, if you want to catch salmon, is the action of your bait or lure. If you have good rolling and erratic action, you will have a much better chance of catching salmon. When a salmon hits your bait or lure he is looking for dinner. If your bait looks like a wounded struggling baitfish you have a much better chance of getting the salmon's attention.

How to Jig for Salmon
Posted by glock on Monday, November 28, 2005 (04:11:10) (4714 reads)
Jigging is a term used to fish whereby you attach a weighted lure in the end of the line, let it down, raise the rod tip, let it back down, and repeat again. Well, it is not really that simple, there are a few other ingredients in the mix.

Fishing the Hanford Reach for Fall Chinook
Posted by glock on Monday, November 28, 2005 (04:09:06) (4924 reads)
The fall chinook salmon fishing in this area gets underway about the last week or two of September. Watch the dam fish count from McNary dam, which is the one just downriver from this fishing location. When the total reaches 5000 chinook, things will start being GOOD, at 7000 to 9000, you had better be there if you intend to fish this. Allow 10 days from the daily count to when the fish will move upriver into this area. Check the number over Priest Rapids dam, usually there will be few, this means the numbers of fish will be between the 2 dams (the fishing area). The fish here will tend to vary in size from 20# to 40#.
