Shasta cripplure, green is my favorite and orange crush has done really well. I put on two Shasta sling blades in front of the cripplure or a hum dinger and do really well. I also like the apex lures in the red or deep pink or whatever you want to call it. A friend of mine taught me to use these lures this year at Flaming Gorge and we had a great time even on the slow days.

Wedding rings are almost always good for some kokes, but I'd stick with pink apexes or Kokanee Kings, fished 1.0-1.4 MPH. Good luck on your trip.

Theekillerbee said it, my choices would be the Kokanee King and the Apex Kokanee Killer. I prefer The rainbow color for the Kokanee King and I replace the hook with a luminescent or pink Gama-whatever-you-call-it hook that is atleast one size larger than the hook it comes with. I use the watermellon color for the Apex. Be sure it is the Kokanee Killer with double hooks and not the trout killer. The nice thing about the Apex is that you will lose far less fish with it than with other lures. I troll both of these behind an 8 inch dodger. I usually troll between 2.0 and 2.2 mph.
