BETTER TACKLE MORE KOKANEE
Premium Kokanee and Trout fishing tackle. Design, Tested, and Approved to the Rocky Mountain Tackle Standard.
For more than 25 years, Rocky Mountain Tackle has been focused on helping anglers catch more kokanee. Every product we offer is selected with real-world fishing in mind and tested by anglers who understand what it takes to consistently put fish in the boat.
Trout fishing should be one of the most enjoyable ways to spend a day on the water. But it can be frustrating if you have a boat, plenty of gear, and a few trips under your belt without much success. Maybe you troll for hours without a bite, swap lures with no plan, or watch other anglers catch fish while you wonder what you’re missing.
The good news: catching more trout usually comes down to a few fundamentals, not a brand-new tackle box. Find the fish, understand what they eat, choose the right presentation, and adjust to the conditions. Whether you fish from a boat, the bank, or vertically over fish on your electronics, this guide gives you a repeatable approach.
After more than 25 years of kokanee fishing, I’ve learned that matching color to depth is one of the simplest ways to put more fish in the net. This guide covers how water filters color, how to choose a dodger finish, how UV and glow work, and how to build a color plan you can use on the water.
The trouble for beginners is the sheer number of choices. Squids, hoochies, spinners, plugs, different colors, different leader lengths. It’s easy to buy a pile of tackle and still not know what to tie on. This guide walks through the main lure types for trolling, how each one works, and when we’d fish it.
