Everyone always says this, but I've caught kokes on rapalas, flatfish, and even drift fishing with powerbait/worms at both Strawberry and Flaming Gorge.
Granted, kokanee are an "incidental by-catch" while bait fishing and trolling loud lures behind dodgers works far better, but there seam to be some kokes who don't understand that they're only supposed to eat plankton. One thing for sure is that for kokes a baited loud lure works far better than an unbaited loud lure, at least for me.
