So you want to go to the river tomorrow and catch some coho. But the fishing gods say you can only take one lure or bait(extra shrimp or eggs okay). So what would your one choice be? The gods will place a curse on you if you hedge and take more than one.

I think I'd choose a float and an egg cluster dangling below it.

What happens when the eggs milk out???
no fair taking a jar of eggs :p


Black Vibrax #4 (clear water)
Orange and silver (stained water)

Well, now that the cat is out of the bag, I'd suggest the Vision Super Secret Spinner. Guaranteed results.

If you can't find any of the new spinners in your local stores, I'd pick up a few 50/50 #1 Dick Nites, just in case!

Dick Nite in 50/50 gold/silver. Size #1

KWIKFISH!!!!!!Far and away the most versatile lure! From steelhead to nookies, coho to chums, trout and even......... god forbid humpies. The question is do I get dinos to wrap it with too? Bait can work any time any where as well! So for a lure my choice is quick....kwikfish. Overall though I think I'd rather be stuck in the middle of nowhere with nothing but a rod and some good eggs!

I'll have to go with a piece of yarn. Pick the color, depends on what river and visability.

BK-
And what color Kwikie would that be??

? I have to plead the fith! There are too many hits on this site to give out that kind of classified information. I think its much more important to focus on tuning your plug correctly and fishing the right water!

I'll go with yarn. Just as Swami said the color depends on the river and conditions. If forced to pick one color I'll take dark blood red. Peri you really picked a mean one! How about our favorite 3 choices? It's just totally against our nature to have one lure for every silver moment.

Parker you are a wise man. Dic nites are my favorite choice. Plus they work for all river critters. My secret is to bend them a little bit to bring a better wobble action.

Just one lure?.... Hmmmm.... I thought there WAS only one! :p

Pedro??? Funky Chicken??? Custom????

It is only between you and me...I swear!!
If you dont tell me, I still manage to find out. I know who you know most of whom can get easily loose lipped with a tad bit of alchool.

Hey 'Petz, I heard a rumor - just a RUMOR! - that he paints his Kwikies flat black and puts a cut out arrow shaped lure tape in chartreuse or flame red on the underneath side toward the back end. Or was that olive green with mustard arrow shaped tape? I can't recall this late at night.

And those little Dick Nite spoons do not work for silvers - what are you FOOLS talking about?!?

RT-
Petz?? Thats the first time I have been reffered to as that...

Was called Pretzel Boy all the time in school but never Petz.

BTW-
Dont lie to us...you know Dick Nites work for coho. Hell you've got your own Wee one readily avaliable.

You could also try RT's favorite lure..............the buttplug herring :p

I dont think I've ever laughed harder! I dont think the fish are too crazy for RTs buttplug herring, maybe theres too much MSG in his diet. :p Butt then again the foul odour alone might triger a brutal strike out anger or defense!
