I think I will be the minority here, but I enjoy my canoe over a boat any day. The difference lies in the type of fishing I do. I have a nice big river running straight through the middle of my city. I enjoy getting in at the drop off, getting completely "lost" in the wilderness, visiting my...

I was half chirping about the escalation, but the other half of it is this time of year gets everyone fired up. If ice fishing doesn't scratch the itch, which to me it doesn't at all, February (this year January) through March I get cabin fever bad. Some people snap lol. Every 2 days someone in...

Someone in this thread, I'm not gonna say who, ^^^, really needs to go fishing...

High temperature like that would have taken them out of the bottom of the pools you said you were fishing and into the rapids. That's where they will get more oxygen (warmer water depletes oxygen quicker) and that is also when they have the energy (keeping in mind they are cold blooded) to move...

Take a look at this: http://www.raventackle.com/shotting_patterns.php Another suggestion I would make is to google and read up on how temperature effects steelhead behavior. There are some "magic" numbers that move the steelhead from the fast runs to the middle of pools, that is often times...

Without a doubt, no hero casts, I have fully accepted we are only entitled a small section of river when we go out due to the popularity of this hobby now and I am content working that area and between float fishermens drifts, however just wanted to point out it works both ways - float fisherman...

Steelhead are known for being finicky. Use small hooks, light line, "invisible" (flouro) leader if you can with a micro swivel. I am a firm believer in always carrying a couple dozen worms with me, vs. my buddy who will use roe basically all day. If neither appeal to you I would use 1" yarn...

There is no set answer to this question. This year, in particular, the run has lasted longer and a bit later than usual. My friend caught a fresh coho with me end of November last year way down river, though I would have never suspected. What I think you want is a rough answer as to when theres...

Ya I saw this too, if they just wanted em for the roe I would have assumed they would have thrown carcasses elsewhere. Just makes me wonder wtf the point was, ain't nobody buying white meat salmon, and it would take one hell of an extended family to eat all that. Either way, effed.

Dead salmon flesh isn't so pink though. Personally I just think it's luck, unless you are one of the lucky ones and know where the residents hang out.

@fisherman2280 that one almost looks like a coho to me, but that's off quick glance. Spots all over tail = rainbow, spots on upper half of tail only = coho. I think, jesus the memory is starting to go... Where I prefer to fish, there are several spots of so stupid shallow water (we are talking...

Ha wow I've always wanted to try topwater for salmon. Never got around to it. Nice video and fish! Link this video everytime some dude says salmon don't bite in rivers.

Bingo pump. Or give it to someone who can't afford fish. Hell toss it back in the damn river so other river organisms have some food. Leaving it on a tree? That spells cocky young kid to me, and I really cross my fingers that those are the people that wont last in the hobby for too long. Don't...

Could be an honest mistake for sure, someone forgot after a couple too many from the flask... but I doubt it, I don't think I ever forgot a fish I kept, have you? I'm either excited for smoker meet or annoyed for the walk back with it, unless you've hooked up 20+ fish that day you're gonna...
