Nah mate…running 340 gram weights…bends the rod at 8 meters running downstream…..running 4 poles at varying depths to see where the fish are running,……the electronics on the boat paint a lot of fish…it just seems they bite at different levels.
Yesterday we were running the bait between 7-10 metres……8 metres seemed to be the honey spot

Well the state has shut down a shit of our favorite spots as the runs are really starting to pick up…they do this so that the numbers returning are strong,for good reason…. They have allowed a few spots to remain open… this is a stretch about 5km west of Portland on the Columbia river…. They gave us 2 days to fish… 2 a piece .. we have 5 … trying to catch the last one
Cut plug herring and cut plug plastics are working

Happy Days. Just found this thread. Nice fish all.
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire

Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
Looks like great fun

Quote ; Are they a surface lure or do you fish them on a downrigger?
Down riggers and leaders with weights …….

These boys don't know what pressured fish look like!!! Spring Chinook seem to bring the entire population of the northwestern US out the the Columbia...or at least 50,000 of em or so.
