Paulina Peak Tackle
Provide A Kokanee Fishing “Edge”!
A
lot of tackle looks good on store
shelves, but only a fraction of that
good looking gear also performs well and
gives you an edge out on the water!
Paulina Peak kokanee gear is included in
that fraction…Paulina Peak lures and blades
look good to anglers and they’ve quickly
proven themselves to be deadly fish catchers.
Captain Bryan Roccucci of Big Daddy’s
Guide Service has a lot of positive things
to say about Paulina Peak gear. He’s been
running Paulina Peak offerings almost exclu-
sively at Bucks Lake and as of this writing
is nailing limits and early limits of kokanee
daily for his clients.
When professionals like Roccucci begin
singing the virtues of a tackle line, it’s time to
take notice. When it comes to catching trout
and kokanee, Roccucci has seen it all and
done it all and he doesn’t waste time playing
with gear that doesn’t work.
The Paulina Peak Tackle’s lure and blade
lineup boasts three deadly offerings at this
time, the Kokanee Katch Micro Hoochie,
the Kokanee Katch Spinner Magic and Big-i
Dodgers.
The Big-i Dodger
line up consists of both
herring style dodg-
ers and slim profile
dodgers in both plain
and hammered finishes
for any light condition.
All of these blades
features a range
of killer color
combinations and
of course each
of them is embossed with the iconic Paulina
Peak all seeing eye!
Paulina Peaks Katch Spinners come in
more than 30 cutting edge color and blade
combinations, while Katch Micro Hoochies
are offered in more than two dozen kokanee
tempting colors.

Using Hot Spot Flashers
to Box Kings!
H
ot Spot Flashers perform very well when it comes to hook-
ing both ocean run king salmon off the California coast and
beyond and reservoir kings at lakes like Shasta and Folsom.
When utilizing flashers the key decisions a fisherman needs to make
are, first the line length between the downrigger release and the flasher.
Second, the tail length between the flasher and the hoochie or bait.
Third, the weight of the leader to use. And fourth, which bait, lure or
hoochie to use behind the flasher.
A typical ocean Chinook setup is 18 feet of line between the
downrigger ball and an 11” Hot Spot flasher. The lure is run 42 inches
behind the blade on 30 lb. fluorocarbon. These measurements are often
utilized by commercial salmon trollers.
When fishing shallow water, say water less then 40 feet deep, it is
often wise to drop the flasher back to 30 to 70 feet
behind the downrigger weight.
For landlocked kings everything is downsized.
Black Mamba Color Flashers Announced!
Hot Spot offers a long list of flasher colors and
finishes. The basic colors are red, green, blue,
white, chartreuse and purple with red and green
being the most popular. Finishes include reflective
silver mylar, transparent pearl and glow.
The leadership at Hot Spot just announced the
addition of the Black Mamba color pattern to their
lineup. It is going to be deadly during periods of
low light and in deep water. The blade features a
black background and full glow UV tape on both
sides. Combine this finish with the blades change
of direction location and you’ll be yelling Fish On!
