Dodger flys

Recommended Posts

I had a response to a thread I did a while back when I made my clousers . Buddy said I should tie some on a siwash hooks for behind dodgers for salmon trolling. So i did and wait to hear back how they work. The green and black one has a trailer hook. It stuck me like 6 X tying the front hook.😂 

Hooks I used are super sharp and strong

I'd tie them with a second hook facing up as a stinger , dodger fly was the hot setup 40+ years ago when Lake Ontario was Coho fishery. Blue zone ( but that name evolved later ) 20 feet down,  Red Luhr Jensen dodger blue Jonsfly , six feet behind the ball ,  Cohoes all summer until they stacked up at the mouths.

Even tying those behind a Williams would be killer.   Early season laker killer!

Elaborate Bill please,,,,,,,,

 

You mean tie a treble up for the spoon, or for a trailer behind it ? The spoon would act as a mini dodger ? I can visually see that working .

 

EDIT

Making a trailer in a shiner/herring pattern would work I am sure . Food for thought. Will have to keep my eye open for those old William spoons. The large ones.

Even used a wooly worm fly a foot or so behind a hookless Williams for trolling spring Specs.

Yup, I've used it a few time.

 

Brian, yeah.  The Williams basically becomes the dodger in this case.   Remove the hook , run a lead and tie on that fly.
