Only way to do it🔥 I wish more people in Washington would try bobber and egg and stop flossing. Nothing more exciting than a fish that you know hammered your presentation!

This is by far the best salmon fishing content I’ve seen great job guys camera quality is perfect
The thunderstick bite was INSANE!! Awesome video!!
I’ve seen a lot of KZread fishing videos but that king strike on that thunderstick was something else. Wow
The intro was more than enough for a thumbs up!
Yuh yuh! Great trip! I finally got my King this summer while on vacation to Ludington. Every time I watch your videos I kick myself for not trout and salmon fishing my first 21 years of life growing up in west Michigan.

Here out west in Washington state, we got no rain and all the rivers are dry still. Seasons are shut down and fish are super stressed. Kinda sad I didn't get to drain bobbers on any kings in the rivers this year.

@@Chiefz I forgot bro I learned year's ago on the southern MI piers don't throw that old skein away. It is fire for coho's and whitefish off the piers I've been doing it for year's. The older and more smelly the better. I personally let some of my salmon skein turn brown and nasty then vacuum seal it. Just for pier fishing in the spring. It out produces fresh skein hand's down.

How far up will a salmon or steelhead come up to get a spawn bag under a bobber? I was always told you need to be within a few inches or practically bounce it off them, but that seems difficult. Especially if you are on new water because hole & run depth can change so much within the hole.
@Chiefz
2 жыл бұрын
Really depends on the time of year. In the fall your steelhead will be more willing to swim farther for a bait, I generally like to start shallower and work my way down. 95% of the time those fish will be sitting within a foot of bottom unless they’re hiding under shelter like a log jam etc
I’m so god damn jealous 😫

You should get a look at the Kings in Washington State. Make those look like boot leather. THOSE are lake Michigan fish right? I think they turn a lot faster than our fish. Our fish from salt waterstay chrome for about a good month and a half longer.
