I have caught 100's of Ho's on a Dick Nite in #1 and the wee size with the stock hook. most people who have never used a DN much don't trust the stock hook but when you catch a few with them you will see that that little hook holds up just fine but by all means change the hook but keep the same size if you want it to work right. In really fast water at anchor and tossing out a DN and put it in the rod holder with a dropper on I sometimes change the hook to a bigger size in really fast water, it seems to make the action work better and brings more fish to the net. colors I use the most are as follows:

Nickle Chartruse head.

Nickle back frog.

Nicle Dark green Head.

Half and Half.

Nickle Red Head.

And I will use Purple for chum...Purple is hard to find unless you order it from Dick Nite.

And I use the DNA scent from Dick Nite in all the flavors. Some days the Kokanee scent works the best but the Salmon scent is good all around. Trout and Shad scent work to on the Ho's.

Leader size I will go as far as 3 1/2 to 4 feet in gin clear water but colored water will be from two to three feet long.

Get your DN on the bottom that is where they bite!...Some guys see the Silvers flying out of the water like Rockets and fish the top water only to get mad and wet.....Get it on the BOTTOM!...

In gin clear water with the sun out and no clouds I will use the same colors but in Brass instead of nickle. The size that I use the most is #1 and the Wee size second and yes the wee size can catch 20lbs Ho's....Depending on the speed and depth of the water I use 1/4 oz and 1/2 oz in egg sinker or a dropper and sometimes split shots...you can go to the Dick Nite web site for a diagram...And when you think you are fishing a DN to slow go slower! When you get woke up and almost get your rod ripped out of hands try to remember how slow you were going after the rush!

I don't see how flossing with a DN would be very productive with such a small hook? Wouldn't a bigger hook and a corkie or yarn be more productive to a Flosser?......I said Flosser not Sportsman!......
