Tip #1...(Float size and style) The ability to read your float is more important than a floats weight in grams!..if you cant tell the difference between a hit and a boulder bang float weight,size,style won't matter!. Try a couple styles in runs that you know don't have fish but do have different bottoms, boulders etc....and watch how the float reacts, this can help you learn which style you like and are confident using. When you find the right float stick to it if possiable, two sizes is all you need for most situations(one for big fast runs, and one for general use), the latter is more for most of our rivers. How you rig it is important too, but that's a tip coming soon!...good luck my friends!

Ask any questions on trout and salmon fishing?....Spending 250+ days on rivers float fishing for steelhead, salmon, browns, skamania.....I now like sharing my knowledge and experiences with others!.

Spending 250+ days a year as a guide has given me extensive knowledge and experience fishing for all species that I like to share whenever I can, answering questions, sharing my stories. I also like hearing others stories and learning new things from them. You can never know everything, so don't let your pride stop you from learning from others and becoming a better angler. There's no such thing as a dumb question, so ask!....(my passion is float fishing for steelhead in fall and winter, building custom rods and tying flies!)
