Tri Flash Tips
-
Rod
-
A medium action downrigger rod can be used, because
Tri Flash creates very little drag when it is reeled in.
- Fishing Line
-
It is recommended that you use at least fifteen pound test fishing
line when using your Tri Flash, as is the same with all other flashers or
dodgers. A lighter leader connected between Tri Flash and lure may be used,
depending on the type of fish sought. A good quality ballbearing swivel
attached to spoons, stickbaits or cutbait rigs is recommended, as is in all
fishing applications.
-
- Leader Length
-
A two to six foot or longer leader length may be used. See figures
1,2,3 and 4 for details. You may want to experiment to see what the fish want.
Here is the leader lenghts Team Tri Flash has found to work best.
Brown Trout - 72 inch leader using spoons connected to the center
clip.
Lake Trout - 30 to 40 inch leader using Peanut rig, Spin-N-Glo or
Flatfish connected to the center clip.
Coho Salmon - 60 inch leader using spoons connected to the center
clip.
30 inch leader using squids or flies connected to one of the
outside clips.
Adult Chinook Salmon - 53 inch leader using spoons, whole bait or
cut bait rigs connected to one of the outside clips. 30 inch leader using
squids or flies connected to one of the outside clips.
-
- Setback
A five to thirty foot setback from the downrigger
weight can be used. Again you may want to experiment to see what the fish want.
Boat Speed
Tri Flash works well at 1 - 3 + miles per
hour
Lake trout: 1 - 1.5 miles per hour "usually
the slower the better"
Brown trout: 2 - 2.5 miles per hour
Salmon All: 2.5 - 3+ miles per hour
Tri Flash can also be used with other fishing tackle that dives.
Tri Flash can also be connected directly to the downrigger weight as an
attractor.
