hello i am new to salmon fishing the rivers and i am looking for some tips! i was hoping for some tips on what kind of gear to use i have a centre pin float rod set up but i am wondering what size hooks to use, bait, etc. if you would be willing to share some decent spots to try that would be great too, thanks!

Is it still a little early for them to be in the river? If so how do I know when they have moved in? Keep checking on here lol

The river you're thinking of peaks around late September so I don't think now would be the best time. Out east should be pretty good though after this rain.

When you say east where are you referring to?

There's a good youtube video of whasisname 'pinning for chinnies in the whirlpool, #2 gamakatsu hook and a big chunk of skein, half oz of weight under a slip bobber.

 

It's not exactly rocket science. Right now, you're fishing off piers, mostly.
