Gear for the fish stocked here

Kokanee

Rod: Ultralight, limber trolling rod, often 7 to 8 feet. A soft rod helps keep fish on.

Line: Light main line. Leader between dodger and lure is usually 10 to 15 lb mono, since kokanee are not leader shy. A rubber snubber helps.

Baits: white shoepeg corn, often scented, maggots, worms

Lures: small hoochies (soft plastic squids), small spinners, small spoons

Rainbow Trout

Rod: Light or ultralight spinning rod, about 4.5 to 8.5 feet; 5 to 6.5 feet suits stocked ponds.

Line: 4 to 10 lb monofilament, with 6 to 8 lb a good middle. Go lighter in clear water.

Baits: worms or cut nightcrawlers, salmon eggs, kernel corn

Lures: small inline spinners, small spoons, curly tail jigs and grubs
