I Love Fishing.
I love it so much that I mentioned it in my wedding vows!
Fishing is great way to bring families together and make moments to remember. Some of our best memories have been created on the water, along the shores, throwing our lines, and laughing around the campfire. It's our chance to unplug from the daily grind and reconnect with one another.
Our Founder & Designer
My name is Emanuele Di Vittorio AKA Manny. In 1973 my family immigrated from Sicily, Italy, to California. Every summer, I would spend countless days fishing at the local lake until my mom would get off work and pick me up. It was those long summer days when my passion for fishing began and remains with me to this day.
My passion for Kokanee and Salmon fishing began in 1994 when I moved to Boise, Idaho. I have learned over the years that the Salmon species is one of the hardest to figure out. The weather and water temperatures have a HUGE impact on the bite.
So, long story short...I am an avid fisherman and have fished all over the U.S. and overseas. Kokes and Kings is my brainchild stemming from a pastime I enjoy and the desire to create some cool, original products designed to put more fish in the tank. All of my rigs are hand-tiedby me in Boise, Idaho, and not overseas! All flashers are custom-builtin the USA.
