KAYAK Fishing for COHO Salmon with a DEEP SIX DIVER!

Awesome 4th of July on the water!!! This is my second attempt to use divers. I have to say... THEY WORK! So far, I'm batting 1,000 with them. 2 trips--2 coho.

In my opinion, this is the BEST beginner approach to coho fishing. I do think there are much more advanced methods that will result in more fish. My heavily biased opinion is it is worth your while to learn how to use a downrigger. But I would be shocked if you tried 5 trips with a diver and failed to catch at least one coho in the July-September range in Puget Sound.

Divers are a joy to use. When a fish bites, you know it and you can reel it in very naturally. No worries about chaffing off fish or devastating cable tangles. The fight is very direct, so even smaller fish feel big. Just make sure to dial in the tension of the screw.
