How To Catch Kokanee Ice Fishing British Columbia Plus Jigging Jaw Jacker

Go Fish BC is looking at ways to enhance the freshwater fishery of British Columbia and one of them is by stocking more lakes with Kokanee. These land locked Sockeye Salmon are a lot of fun to catch, with a generous limit of 5 fish a person and taste excellent. While I have fished for them a lot in the summer months and have published numerous summer fishing videos, I have very few Ice fishing kokanee videos. In Fact this is my second one. Hopefully there will be more in the future as the kids really seemed to love the day out on the water fishing for kokanee. They are a schooling fish and when a school comes through the action be quite crazy as you will see in the video. Unfortunately two of the craziest bites I caught on camera had corrupted files and lost forever. Hope you enjoy this little video with my daughters. I love listening to them, the things they say get me smiling every time.
The Jigging Jaw Jacker was actually responsible for quite a few hits and several fish on the ice. Just didn't make it on the video. You can see it in action for one fish at least. Amazing contraption. I'm really impressed with these rigs.

aww man, the matching hello kitty chairs, the buddy heater, then the hot dogs! Nothing beats a good hot dog when out fishing.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Yes, I have girls and that is for sure. I think they're pretty amazing though. Hello Kitty chairs and all. I got them up at 6:30 AM and they fished till 4PM, they crashed in the truck in like 5 minutes, haha.

[@adventuretimefishinghunting]

There is nothing better then bringing your kids out and watching them catch fish so much fun!! I bring my boys out with me all the time. Way to go dad!!! Great episode

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks for watching. Kids are a bit of work to bring out but highly worth the effort. I love taking them out. When they go all day and not say, when are we going. You know it was a job well done.

[@adventuretimefishinghunting]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures I hear yeah there it's the exact same when I get out with my kids.

[@albertaoutdoorsman3451]

Nothing better than BC trout and bass fishing

[@brandonkoperski9867]

Yeah it is a great fishery!

[@HopskysLounge]

looks like an awesome day. kokanee fishing is a lot of fun, i love sight fishing them

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Yes it was fabulous! Lots of fun for the kids and myself.

[@unreellife]

Ive borrowed your tip of putting a flasher on the jigging jawjacker to attract the kokanee, it works great. Love that your kids love getting out there to ice fish.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Excellent. Yeah it does work. I still haven't seen anyone in BC fishing with a Jaw Jacker. They aren't that common out here. I have seen many elsewhere but I think most guys in BC don't put them in because of the one rod through the ice rule.

[@RalphBarton-fishing]

Great to see the kids out there with you.... With all that fast action they looked to have a blast... So cool

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks for watching, yes they loved it. I'll have to see if I can use someones recommendation so see if uploading directly to KZbin will play them.. The best action was those two files I lost. You saw the tail end in the video with the fish flopping topside already.

[@proudcanadiansteinke9619]

Amazing time with the kids that's what it's all about ...cheers

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks

[@weehourscadworks1835]

kids make it so much fun......

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

For sure, so much better with them. Kind of boring when I go out alone.

[@Jazzzzer456]

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks for watching.

[@FougereFamilyAdventures]

I'm excited to watch this. The suspense is almost too much. 😀 Guess we will go ice fishing tomorrow 😎

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Yeah, well it would have been better if my files hadnt corrupted but still pretty good with some action.

[@FougereFamilyAdventures]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures I can't wait to watch it. Keep up the great work.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

[@fishingreporter2784]

Cali is qualified the skilled angler now

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Yeah she actually caught a whole bunch on her own, unfortuantely those two files corrupted. It was great fun. Sierra got a couple others on the jaw jacker as well.

[@Mahigeer1]

Nice informative video. Nice girls.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks for watching.

[@Mahigeer1]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures Wish I did not live so far away, in Los Angeles. I have visited Alberta, when I came to Fernie for fly fishing, but ice fishing.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

@@Mahigeer1 Yean that is a ways. I used to live down there east of LA for school. Now back in Canada.

[@Mahigeer1]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures May be USC?

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

@@Mahigeer1 No I went to Loma Linda University.

[@FougereFamilyAdventures]

Great video. Looks like you guys had fun. I would love to try one of those jaw jackers one day.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Yeah this was the first time I acutally used them to catch kokanee and I think that one jaw jacker hooked four and two landed by my daughter off camera, the one on camera popped right when she was dragging out of the hole.

[@edboutdoors3632]

Amazing video really enjoyed it now I know how to catch kokanee

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks for watching!

[@edboutdoors3632]

Yourwelcome any time

[@landmarkdesigns9667]

Who on earth could thumbs down this video??

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Haha apparently 2 people don't like kids and kokanee. I have some standard hater followers. They watch all my videos just to give them thumbs down.

[@landmarkdesigns9667]

The Fishing Doctors Adventures I guess they will always be there following success. Love your vids, I watch them all and learn a lot. Got a couple on the slender spoons tonight. Have young kids too and take them out near Kelowna. Finally got some Kokanee last weekend. Kids were stoked. Thanks

[@Jazzzzer456]

Tryin to get hospital release for a couple hours to fish for stocked rainbows in austin, tx...its crazy they r stockin em so late this year, cause the temp is in the 50s which seems warm for those species...☺🤗

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

That sounds great. You have a good shot at them if you can get out there soon right! Good luck!

[@ChipDarby13]

Oops I guess I should have watched to the end before I asked what you used for bait🤣

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

No problem, i do the same thing watching videos.

[@JustinHallowesOutdoors]

great video and I like the details just wondering what do you do with the fish. baked or grilled or fried or smoked? never tasted one

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

I have smoked them before. This time they were all eaten baked fresh. Ate them up in no time. Gave 6 away to friends and we devoured the rest! There is a picture on the thumbnail of some before I popped them in the oven. I may have pics on my instagram as well.

[@JustinHallowesOutdoors]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures now I remember see the pictures on the thumbnail

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

@@JustinHallowesOutdoors Yup, you got it! Thanks for watching. The how to catch them was right at the end of that longest video ever just incase you didn't catch it.

[@AlbertaAngling]

Love this one

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Thanks for watching, the kids are always a nice addition. They do say the darndest things. I like when my daughter is trying to take them out of the tent and says, "This one, your coming with me!"

[@AlbertaAngling]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures Haha so cute. It seems like they have been liking fishing more and more over the years haha good on ya!

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Yeah, i would say they are prettt accustomed to it. They like ice fishing cause they can run around.

[@ChipDarby13]

Can I ask what you were you using for bait?

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Meal worms worked pretty well for us.

[@colinsjunkbin]

What wheel do you use for Kokanee on the JawJacker Jigging Base? 🍻

[@ChrisKingAngling]

You can save corrupted GoPro files by simply uploading them into your KZbin channel then saving them. Just learned that yesterday. Wish I knew that trick a few years ago. You do lose some quality i found.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Really, are you serious? I have to try that out.

[@ChrisKingAngling]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures Yes, i just salvaged 4 files from two different days of fishing.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

@@ChrisKingAngling Well I am going to try that. You just upload it directly to youtube as the corrupted file and it plays? That seems too good to be true but I will try tonight. Let you know if I am as lucky.

[@ChrisKingAngling]

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures Yes. I just clicked upload, dragged the corrupted file into KZbin, it processed the file automatically for a few minutes, then the file could be viewed. I saved the file as a mp4 back into the original folder on my computer.

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

I hope this works, wish i knew beforehand
