Stripping micro leaches and spratleys worked for me. Also had a few come up and take a small dry when they are feeding on the surface.

Ive found the old wedding band and worm works like a charm.Tried it when nothing else would and the kids pounded them!!!!

I've heard they like maggots , never used them myself before , and I heard if the maggots are live all the better, anyone know a) where to get live maggots, b) how to set them on the hook?

u should be able to get live maggots at pet stores !

I just hook maggots threw the end, and then they stay alive and wiggle, every fish, I add another until there is a decent chunk of moving meat.  Never used them here, only interior and kootenays, not sure where to get them around locally.

Worms are very productive in this area. I know the fly guy's will hate this but, I use a hook and a worm on my fly rod with full sink, trolling as slow as possible (.7-.9mph) if you want the worm to have action put a kink in the hook and the worm will have a slow roll.

is a tube like fish-cat and similar good enough or safe enough for Kawkawa lake?

[Rodney]

It should be ok as long as it is not too choppy, but it'll be cold...

Here are a few photos of crafts that you find on Kawkawa Lake.

Some anglers get really hot headed when they miss a few bites
