About this product
The UV Kokanee and Trout Dodger combines a baked UV finish with the proven slow-to-medium speed action that kokanee and rainbow trout respond to best. Under low-light conditions and at depth, the UV coating amplifies the dodger’s visibility and gives it an edge that standard chrome finishes simply can’t match. The UV profile remains visible at the 20-40 foot depths where kokanee school during peak season. The blade’s medium action produces a consistent side-to-side kick that mimics the erratic movement of distressed baitfish, drawing fish in from the surrounding water column. Pair it with a trailing hoochie, Wiggle Ring, or T-Pex for a complete kokanee trolling setup.
Questions and answers
What is the UV Kokanee & Trout Dodger for?
This UV dodger is a slow-troll attractor for kokanee and trout. It runs ahead of a spinner or hoochie, throwing whip and flash that pulls fish in. Max Gross ran it at Wishon Reservoir in white, pink, and watermelon behind leadcore. It is offered in 8 colors.
How do I fish the UV dodger?
Slow troll it about 1.2 to 1.8 mph so it wobbles without spinning over. Trail a spinner like Uncle Larry's Glow Tiger 12 to 18 inches back, tipped with corn and a small nightcrawler. Max Gross scents the whole rig with WD80 for more bites on the slow troll.
What color UV dodger works best?
White, pink, and watermelon produced rainbows for Max Gross at Wishon Reservoir. The dodger comes in 8 colors, including Rainbow, Hammered 24k Gold, and Blue. UV finishes hold flash in stained water and low light. Match the dodger color to your spinner or hoochie behind it.
What do I run behind the UV dodger?
Trail a slow-troll lure. Guides run Uncle Larry's Glow Tiger and Double Trouble spinners or a hoochie behind this dodger, tipped with corn and nightcrawler. Keep the leader short, roughly 12 to 18 inches, so the dodger's action transfers into the lure and gives it life.
Should I run a spoon behind this dodger?
No. Spoons like the Trigger Spoon are fast-troll lures that run clean on their own, not behind a dodger. Use this UV dodger to front slow-troll spinners and hoochies. When you want to speed up and cover water, switch to a clean-running Trigger Spoon instead.
What species does the UV dodger target?
It is built for kokanee and trout, and it doubles for landlocked salmon. The UV flash draws fish to a trailing spinner or hoochie on the slow troll. Run it on leadcore one to two colors deep to reach fish holding near the surface in cool water.

The dodger works great and I love the color should just work fine for landlocked, salmon, and trout up here in Wyoming.
Colors are awesome but not going to Shaver lake until all the jet skiers and speed boats are off the lake- September
