Wiggle Warts

I had a friend give me some of his old tackle and he raved about his results with with wiggle warts.  I had never heard of anyone troller for salmon with these... truth be told, I never heard anything about these.  I figure it has been awhile since they were used too... they all still have barbed treble hooks on them.  I was gonna try a couple of them... took off the trebles and replaced them with one barbless octopus hook.  Am I on the right track?  Or at least one that may produce results?

theyre awesome for bass. there's also an echip model that fish can't help but attemp murder as well. but for salmon, I'm sure if you get in ones face it'll have a go at it.. www.google.com/searchbar

Also trout. 

Lures are Design to catch Anglers at the store. LOL I like to go to Cabela's and take lures to the fish tank and Shake them in front of the Fish, the Employee's don't Like ya doing that and it's funny as hell too..Wiggles are some of the best ..

Wiggle warts Rock! They're great for Bass, but deadly on summer and winter steelhead as well

They are allot of people's go to coho lure. Remove the trebles, add two slip rings and a siwash hook to the forward hook attachment. You might have to tune it a bit after the hook swap to make sure she's still tracking correctly. Just make slight bends in the metal piece that's attached to the diving lip until she swims inline while shaking her butt proper.

Yup, they work. I put a four-bead-chain at the belly eyelet and a single hook to make it more snag resistant. I've fished them from shore, but know many guys that like to pull them with the drift boat.

I used a wiggle wart trolling for Coho last season and caught a big Chinook!

     Love the warts

 While I love the thump,thump,thump of a kwikfish on the end of my rod--I have caught more salmon (Kings,silvers,and chum) with warts than any other plug.Metallic colored Mag Warts in particular.

  In low,clear water try the mini-warts.Steelhead can't resist them.

  Stay away from octopus hooks--use a bead chain with a siwash hook for best results.

While we're on topic, what are some good colors for fall chinook and coho? I'd like up try fishing these this year.

How do you guys run them?  Weight, extra flashers, etc?

For Coho in the Columbia solid orange or orange herringbone does well.  Other colors can work great too

Anyone use Mag Lips?

Thanks PP. I actually just bought a couple different shades of orange to try at Drano. I hear that lake can yield pretty good results for salmon on the troll and orange is the color to fish. I haven't tried it yet but I'd like to start this year.
