Anyone here had success with using lures such as pink Buzz Bombs for cohos?

[Matt]

yes

[sumasriver]

Pink Crocs work well.

[Long_Cast]

I think I'll try out my pink Buzz Bomb for tomorrow.

I haven't hooked a salmon since September.

Do you need to add a float and weight when using spoon?

[fic]

I've caught chums, cohos and pinks using the same spoon and same cast and retrieve this year.  No float is required.

Often times, I think it is more about the action you put on the lure than the colour...

Do you need to add a float and weight when using spoon?

No, just attach it directly to your line.  Cast it out, wait long enough for it to sink to a level you think the fish are sitting at, and retrieve it slowly.

Rod has some good videos showing how to cast spoons, you should watch them.
