    Great video Jag. Thanks for the run down. That set up works good on bigger rivers like Niagara where you bottom bounce the bait. Hope you have a great fall season.

    So here is my take on it.... ive seen salmon snap fancy expensive rods. I like to go with ugly sticks. They can take a beating and if it snaps.....well you didnt just lose a 200-300 dollar rod you know?. Btw never had one snap an ugly stick on me yet. I like to use medium. If i am fishing smaller creeks ill use a 6'6" as its easier in smaller places. On the main river something like a 9' rod will make your life a whole lot easier.

    Great Info, Im planning this fall for a visit to salmon river. With the information you give I feel I will be confident in catching some of these beasts. Quick question, you mention you use a Kastking sharky 3000. You mention 16lb main line, the sharky III 3000 shows from what I see is max at 12lb. This still works fine? Thank you for your time and good luck to all this coming fall.

    Good luck on ur first trip its always so exciting man! You have to have no more than 48" between your weight and leader. Unless you use a stopper i dont see that happening. Also i think that it would defeat the purpose of the rig to be honest. What rig are you thinking of going with?

    @@steelrain2256 i would not stray away from the setup i showed. When i first started out i ttied dofferent things and lets say when it comes to theory and practice this one works the best. But by all means feel free to mess around within the legal limits on trying to find whats best for you. And yes that will be enough. When im out there i honestly have my drag set so low its ridiculous. I usually have 10lb test leader and i always think of how much drag do i want on 10 test with a 30 pound salmon on the line. Honesty a decent bass setup will do the job. Its not so much the strength of the gear its more about how the fisherman fights the fish type of deal

    @@jagfishing836 I agree with way the fisherman fights the fish makes all the difference. I lost one a foot from shore on 14lb ragin Cajun line just yesterday all was going well besides it crossing every other pole that was on the bank when I set my drag kinda loose ish. So to stop him from running so much I tightened my drag little by little, still all going well and then when my brother was a foot away with the net he snapped my line. I would have landed him had I not tightened the drag so much and just let the reel wear him out over a longer time. Lessons learned. I usually run 25lb braid which I dragged a 14.5lb king in with the day before just fine. That being said. When putting up a fight like that for so long it is a good idea to re-rig because with the 25lb braid 3 seconds in to its next fight it snapped right after the sinker. Major let down I lost 4 salmon yesterday due to being new at big game fishing. I am used to skidding 8lb catfish across the top of the water with my heavy pole and 65lb braid. Happy fishing. There are a ton of salmon right now, almost none of them care about what's on the end of your line for bait though.

I was wondering how you found out about the tackle restrictions for the salmon River. I have been looking for the specifics on the black River for dexter. I know there are differences with the types of hooks you can use even in different parts of the river there are different rules. I was looking to get a small boat and do not want to be breaking any regulations for the fish.
