      I kind of felt like it was an unrealistic number to be honest. I've caught over 100 bass in 2 days.... which I've never in my life done anything like that before. But eh.

    Dude awesome snaging techniques .

      flossing or drifting isnt snagging and completely legal and almost necessary on our local Rainer silt rivers. its also a great technique for fishing under structure like fallen trees if fish are stacked up underneath it. ive thrown jigs bobbers with eggs just about everytime i go just to see if something will take and in the 10 plus years ive fished ive maybe had a few bites but have never landed a fish. any other river thats not full of silt in the WA area this is the last technique used because of how affective other ones are. they cannot even see in that river salmon arent even feeding when they are spawning in rivers like this. they bite eggs for more territorial reasons to begin with not even biting for feeding reasons. so get off your high horse cause snagging a fish is illegal and this guy is well within WA state regulations and if you talk to any fish and wildlife officer they will tell you this is the most affective way to fish this river and are they are fishing the rivers themselves this way. love to see some locals slamming some kings in my hometown rivers thats what its all about. keep it up brother hope you get some this season!

      I mean I agree and disagree. I think floating is a better method and guarantees a better and natural hookset since they are biting your bait. Not to mention less line left in the river. I haven't been taught properly how to float. I fished last year and tried but I wasn't very successful in keeping the eggs on. I didn't brine my own eggs only bought from a store. This year I intend to float. Hit up the Green. I'm not one to intentionally snag. It does happen and it's not planned. I've sturgeon fished and snagged them from bottom fishing on rare occasion. It happens but I'm trying to improve all the time. If you have any tips I'd be happy to hear. I don't get the braid as main then switch to copolymer leader with a blood knot. That's the stuff I need practice with.

      @@kellylambert4527 not on rivers like this. your not listening to what im explaining this is a silt river and if the fish cant see your eggs or your jigs they arent going to hit them. this is the go to method because of that and any other river people are floating eggs minus the puyallup and the carbon people are throwing jigs and floating eggs because they are far more affective. if those methods worked people would use them its simple as that

      I'm not discrediting you that at all. I floated the last two times on the carbon (yesterday) and they weren't hitting. Me and a couple others. Again I'm new to floating but I did try. I have eggs that I bought out of a jar that were cured and ready to go. I caught two silvers yesterday that had eggs so I'll do the best I can preparing those for steelhead.

      2 to 3 foot leader isn't really flossing territory. Yeah you'll floss some, but you're more likely to get a biter than with a 5+ footer lol

    • @teamqwest
      @teamqwest  Місяць тому

      I was only using a 1.5 feet. I haven't posted a video yet but I foul hooked a few coho by them just running through my line. It's never intentionally done.

    • @Graceclaw
      @Graceclaw Місяць тому

      @@teamqwest leader looks a bit longer than 1.5 feet, and the number of fish you foul-hooked supports that. But it really does go back to the age-old discussion of how to target fish with 1 inch of visibility.
      Have you noticed the Carbon clearing up somewhat immediately after a big rain, like the Puyallup does?
