Leads

[Grant Sadler]

Well here we go again , I just recevied my COHO flies from Matt, they look good, now how long do ya make the leads from the dogger to the flie?

Thanks you guys

there is not a lot of Coho in L.H. but I want the pres. to look right:thumb:

u dont need a long lead for coho, about 3x the length of your flasher, ie 4" flasher use a 12 to 16" lead. Just be sure to use red or orange flashers and early u dont need to go very deep, 5 to 8' . The 000 4" luhr jensen dodger in coho red on an SWR rig on a yellow bird is killer for early coho. I like the siggs coho candy gold christmas or silver christmas and the peanut fly in copper and red silver is killer too.

What He Said. Yep. Cheddar fly in Blue and copper.

3 times the length of the dodger is the best rule.

Bingo. Overall 3 times the dodger or flasher length is a good starting point.
