RE:River Fishing Salmon
Congrats Toni. Hopefully you knock a few more before this season is over...
Don't chase reports...Be the report others chase....
RE:River Fishing Salmon
Hey Toni, while down at the river the other day my buddy caught a nice 20lb king on corky and yarn both were orange. I also found a bunch of corkies during low tide and they were either orange, green or rainbow. We were at the green river though.
RE:River Fishing Salmon
I ended up using the sliding weight drift fish set up. For colors I tried green, red, orange and white. The pink and black is what went in their mouth.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

RE:River Fishing Salmon
What's a "hoochie"? I'm at work and affraid to do a search on that word. o:)Sam Kafelafish wrote:I'll try it tomorrow if I fish a Dick Nite rig.
Mallard you heard of any luck with green mini hootchies on jig heads for pinks? Dude next to me every time I'm out there (this guy is out there every time I'm there believe it or not) always outfishes me 3-5. I use the standard pink stuff. Pink or 50.50 Dick nites or a pink jig. He uses this mini green spatterback hootchie and smacks em on it. Same retrieve as him same spot. i'll stand right next to him and still he gets more fish...
I got some of the same stuff at Joes earlier today after he outfished me this morning and threaded some of those hootchies on the jigs and will try those for a long time tomorrow and come back with results...
Your way does make sense though. I'm sure the pencil lead is what snags up the most so I'm hoping your way solves this? You seem to be a bigger river guy then me (only fish Pinks/Chums for CnR fun and I'm a saltwater guy) so I'll take your word on it.

A hoochie is an artificial squid. They have them in different sizes. You want to get the small pink ones while fishing for pinks.
