how to piss off a king

[hard knox]

New to king salmon fishing but have been doing pretty well was thinking when the thermo is gone the kings dont really feed very well and get lock jaw. often i found there bellies empty so that being said i am looking for opinions on just what really pisses them off triggering a strike seeing there not actively feeding .thanks

A fast lure zipping by their face. Sometimes speeding up helps.

Tried rolling faster today had one hit a flasher fly doing 2.9 at the ball before doing 2.2 2.3 I would get bites. Also I think rattle j plugs aggravate them

X2 plus anything that has a lot of movement like a exaggerated hot & tot those humped back flat fish, there's a old guy in our camp BRCG all he does is troll silver huge flat fish and there's a river boat that uses J 11's in the current, but I have caught them trolling them off the riggers also both Jplugs and J11 like 15ft down the lures will pull down to where the fish are, might have to consider the rigger depth plus the lures curve also to get the lure in the fishes face. Also running a long flat line at just say 20ft they swim the line in there mouth till the lure gets there, not much of a sportsman's way but it works. Edited September 17, 2016 by pap

i have tried some apex lures that have a very crazy action thought for sure they would work but nothing should have got more aggressive colors maybe i will try them behind a flasher

Kings stop eating when they get ready to spawn. Their stomachs actually shrink.

 

Irratic motions and brite colors back and forth seem to do the trick.  That's why guys like plugs this time of year.

As others have stated, rattles, bright colors, erratic moving baits, go big (giant spoons).  I put rattle traps on the back of my downrigger balls and run flasher flies behind them in September.  THE NUMBER ONE IMPORTANT TRIGGER THIS TIME OF YEAR IS FISH WITH AN APPROACHING FRONT OR WEATHER.  Your welcome.
