ice fishing kokanee - 19calvin - 01-12-2014

Angry 19calvin
Hi,
I have been fishing forever, being older than dirt. But Kokanee have me stumped.
I have had very sporadic success.
I fish in Dutch lake , Clearwater, BC but have also fished in sulphurous, Deka, Bridge with mixed success.
I am talking ice fishing as I target trout in open water season, as a fly fisherman.
First of all can anyone tell me of a good book on koke ice fishing? I haven't found one yet.
What about your flasher, I have been using the Deka lake flasher with the glow hook that comes with it. I think the glow hook is too big but what do I know.
Fish it about sixteen inches below flasher with any where from one to five maggots.
I will get nothing but small ones while another guy five feet away will be pulling in big ones.
Don't get me wrong I have had some good days but mostly frustration.
I think they are hard to catch through the ice.
Any help or advice you can give will be much appreciated.
