THE KOKE/EYE LURE FAMILY

CATERPILLAR LURES: 

There are two Caterpillar Walleye lures available. 

The first lure is crafted with a Mustad 2/0 Super Death hook and tied with P-Line 15# CXX crystal clear leader. It has a Smile Blade® in a red scale and contrasting gold wedding rings with red rhinestones. 

The second lure is crafted with a 2/0 Big River bait hook and assembled on .041 stainless wire.  

The preferred method of fishing these lures is to twitch them just above the bottom, but they will troll equally well behind a bottom bouncer at 1.2-1.5 mph.

CHIRONOMID LURES:

These lures are designed to imitate Chironomids, a major food source for trout, walleye, kokanee and pan fish. They have red or green beads  with Gamakatsu #2 octopus hooks.

The latest addition to the Chironomid family of lures is the Chironomid Mini with a single #6 Gamakatsu octopus red hook. This lure has a rubber stopper to keep the components together when casting and twitching. This lure is much smaller than our other chironomid lures at just one inch overall. It casts well on a fly line, twitched or behind a bottom bouncer.

The preferred method of fishing all of these lures is to twitch them just above the bottom, but they will work equally well behind a bottom bouncer at 1.2-1.4 mph. 

As to bait choices, I would use a plastic shrimp, maggot or kernel of corn on the top hook of the double hook lures, and the scent of your choice.  And, of course, use half of a night crawler on the Slow Death hook.
