Diwnriggers for ten mile lake is a bit much, you can catch them trolling or on bloodworms, leeches and chironomids

Summer hookup.
Use a lead core line, 27# should do. 40' leader and flasher or gang troll followed by your favorite Hildebrand spoon. Fish 2 or 3 colors in early hours of day and use more colors as the sun climbs in the sky. Same set up for Tyee to the south.

Yes that ir even under an indicator, be prepared to use long leaders if the fish are deep. Pink and red bloodworms, leeches and chironomids were always the ticket for me

I remember when they had the vote for stocking kokanee in ten mile. Everyone was for it except two old hags. I remeber well as a bunch of guys got heated and verbally abused the reporter for the cariboo observer as he was known for turning peoples words around in articles and many were not to fond of him being their lol. The old hags were shut down pretty quick aswell. Was a good time lol

I fish 10 Mile a lot in the summer. I use a lead line on a fly rod. I put a 20' leader on and then use an orange or pink apex kokanee killer, or an orange or pink Mac Imperial. I have had days when we boated over 30 fish. I put out to 5 colors of lead line to get it down to the 20-25 foot depth. The biggest that my wife and I have caught is 17 1/2 inches, about 1 3/4 lbs.
