Marry yourself to success for CdA kokes

June is the favorite month for Wedding Bands at Lake Coeur d’Alene among anglers looking to hook-up with kokanee.

Rig the popular lure behind a No. 7 Hildebrandt flasher and a rubber snubber.

By Memorial Day, the fish should be around Mica Bay as they continue a northward migration up the 25,100-acre lake into the Boothe Park and Beauty Bay waters by late June.

Use limber rods and slowly troll monofilament in the top 12 feet of water for most of May and June before the fish go deeper.
