It does the same to me getting all excited for the salmon and sea trout run, I'm lucky to live a 5 minute walk from the river and its great watching the float shoot down deep and aggressive...
Lol... The sound of a whip cracking every time you set the hook 😅 Probably an issue when you refer to setting the hook as "swinging". It should be a pull, not a swing...but damn it looks like fun!
Nice early action! Regarding the break offs and hook sets when you are using braid skein fishing for kings I found you need extra cushion somewhere. A little bit softer rod, lighter hook set, or what I do is add about 15-18in of heavy monofilament shock leader between my braid main line and my flouro leader say 20lb mono (keep your float above it on your main line). It gives you the extra stretch you need when setting the hook or for blistering runs. Or frankly you could probably run a mono leader instead of flouro. Just some thoughts from personal experience float fishing with braid. Tight lines this season and keep the videos coming!
I like setting the hook even harder than you. You’re on the right track with braid. I like to use anywhere from 50-70lb test straight to my offering. Ditch the bobber and just pinch a few heavy split shots on. You’ll figure it out eventually.. there’s definitely a learning curve and takes some guys quite a bit longer to comprehend.
@@sbsoutdooraction3055no, you don’t have to tone it down at all tell him to shut up, you’re having fun, the best part is the hook set. Do you, fuck him
Yeh read your comment before seeing it thinking you were overreacting but now having see it , it is definitely over the top , lol even the bass guys are like wtf man
Have you tried using bubble floats/bobbers? No need to add a sinker cuz the weight is in the float so maybe just a split shot to get the bait down, I love using them they're excellent for timed fish like grey mullet.
I use braid and had issues until I started using a bumper. I got a chunk of 30lb mono on my rig to give it that little bit of stretch far less issues after doing that.
Hey I’m down over by lake st Clair on the Clinton river , planning to get some steels on the river, do you have any idea on rigs for them ? I’ve got a new riversider AV40 with 10lb sunline nylon line on. Lmk on any tweaks and rigs you mind sharing with me. Would love to get on my first steelhead or potential coho .
@@austindarvai not the best time for steel rn mainly all salmon. I’d stick with a fixed float rig with beads, unless you have fresh caught eggs to use. Don’t shy away from spinners either. Hope this helps!
Explain to me how rain gets them biting? In the PNW rain doesn’t affect the bite. River level does. Rivers on the rise after a heavy rain shuts off the bite as fish will be on the move. Rivers on the drop after it stops raining for a day or two can make salmon hold down in pools turning on the bite.
Not 100% sure. Pretty spot on every time it starts raining here, the fish start biting. Maybe the sense of them knowing the river may rise, or just something different who know
Setting the hook on a large salmon is always the beginning of an ordeal. My longest fight at the salmon river this year was nearly an hour…he just kept running and running. By the end of it, both of my biceps were sore because I kept switching the rod to give my individual arms a break. Not to mention the 10+ anglers downstream who we (very politely) bulldozed over while trying to chase it. Luckily most of the guys there have a sense of humor and root for you as you go by lol
Ive never put braid on my centerpin. Braid is meant for horsing fish in, mono helps gve a little stretch for playing fish. Im sure im not telling you anything you dont already know. Throw mono on and by next season youll be a pro with it.
Ya man u need that mono main line for the stretch. U get a king rip upriver and ur braid catches on ur pin handle ur either gonna have a hardcore line pop or ur rod will go, iv seen it happen many times
@@sbsoutdooraction3055 I’ve noticed on them big kings the stretch of the line will help cushion the blow on Those really big head shakes and fast runs. Plus If you ever do some winter stealhead and rub som chap sick on your eyelets it’ll keep your line from freezing whereas braid will freeze like a wet rag.
When fishing kings preparation is key. Good line and a good knot. If you have those I don't think you'll break the line on the hook set unless you try. I always tried to have the smallest less visible line I could. But over the years have learned in situations where fish especially big fish are aggressive, They will bite with a tow rope on it. I think 60-70 lb braid and a Palomar knot is what you need. Not much can compare to the KING.
@@justsaynrush9689 wasn’t the knot breaking, was breaking/having to retie mainly from my lines getting all wrapped in the braid after swinging. Definitely nothing like a king tho!
Awesome. I was kayak drifting the St.Joe yesterday and there was a guide who said there was 15 or so Kings in a hole up ahead. He held one up and I couldn’t believe Kings were in already with lake temps so hot. Never caught one and I’m going to give them a run this year. Unfortunately, we had small mouth lures only. Love your videos as it helped me get my first lakers off the pier last November
pull low and to the downstream side on your strike using the current to pull it into the scissors,lifting pulls it out of their mouth or lip hooks them and they get off
5 days and I’ll be up there. Will be great to get back to my home state and do a little battling. Maybe run into when I’m there. Grab some of my custom baits too to try.
I don’t think your leader should be breaking that easily regardless of how you set the hook. What knots are you using? Maybe try Palomar knots when you tie to swivels and other tackle. Also lubricate your knots well when tightening them. I used to have leaders and egg loop knots break all the time before doing these two things. I use 20lb Seagaur red label for my leaders. It’s very strong and flexible. Hope this helps! Great videos!
@@armandoantonioserpasmitjav1131 leader breaks were mainly from after the fact when I had to cut them from being wrapped in braid. I did break a few leaders in the middle, likely from it being it the fishes teeth. Thanks for watching!
Suggestion: this is a guess that you are newer to float fishing judging by your hook sets and breaking off. If you don’t know how to use a pin do not use one. Just use a spinning rod or use a level 1. I learned this the hard way too, only use pin if you know what your doing
Not new been at it for years. Float was set about a ft deep for the shallow hole and I was standing 10ft away from it. Any movement that close and shallow is gonna send it flying. Probably couldn’t eased up a bit on some of the sets tho 👍
I don't fish like this but when I'm using a popping cork I use Khal hooks. Not sure if the mouths of these fish work the same as all the fish in Texas. Looking forward to fish those waters soon
should be waiting longer to set, a lot of the fish, esp bucks ive found nibble a few times before they inhale it, I usually wait until the bobber is absolutely gone
All these guys telling you not to set the hook so hard, lol. I set the look just like you did all the time with no issues. If the line breaks you are having some kind of other issue with leader strength or the knot. Some of the bites you swung on looked like the bottom, others clearly were bites. Looked like a fun day.
@@swimbait1 everyone’s always gonna have their opinions lol. I think only 2 or 3 leader breaks happened the rest were all just swing and a miss. Thanks for watching!
Skien bite is slow, give them time to take it in and expose the hook. Then tighten up, don't yank. You ain't bass fishing on Bill Dance Outdoors. If you have to set so hard switch to 20 pound mono, and lose the split shots that might weaken your line. Those first 4 "bites" could have been dragging bottom, or bumping the sides of fish with your bait below them. Had you pulled slow tight rather than swinging for the fences you might know.
Early salmon often nip and don’t always take it down. Did switch to 20lb mono gonna give that a try. Most of the breaks were ones I had to cut from the braid being all wrapped up 👍
Let them eat it, around where I’m at, all the guys say give them a couple seconds, they will set the hook themselves, reel into them as if you have a circle hook and only yank after you actually feel the fish, lose almost no bobber downs doing this, even with jig fishing steelhead.
I say this and a lot of fishing videos.Everybody horses the fish in my dad taught me.If you're gentle and let him run and playn right and don't horse the fish and you're more unlikely going to land em
@@sbsoutdooraction3055 Het ready for a sore arm and bustin knuckles. It gets old especially if you are trying to stick em for eggs. Need our bags for the Steel.
How much unsolicited advice can the fish snobs spit out in one comment section 😂 obviously knows what he’s doing, and everyone works out the kinks at some point. No amount of word advice can give someone the “feel” that comes with experience. Awesome vid
Skein is the whole hunk of the roe bag without removing them like you would for single eggs. Ya cure em on the skein so ya don't tie em into bags. Now ya know
Okay. How come I am the only woman I see fishing for salmon or trout on the river? Don’t women do this? Since I have actually never caught one, and at the risk of getting blasted by insinuating that women are the weaker sex, is it a super physical thing to bring one of those fish in?
broi is opulling the bait out of the salmon mouth and is getting upset... dude you're literally yanking those bobbers so hard, no wonder the line gotten messy from backlash, not only are salmon bones are thick, they're going to take a minute to hook yet you rip the hook that's barely set right out of their mouth.... frustrating video to watch
@@EnderDragonGamerz02 still have to swing a little to get hooks through skein and set right. Also a small river so could tone the sets down a little with being so close
Why are you putting the eggs so far above the hook? Is it a regulations thing in Michigan? No one over here in the PNW runs their eggs that way. No one. That looks like an Alaska flossing rig. Not going to lie… tough watch. Breaking off fish and yanking it out of so many mouths. Woof.
@@sbsoutdooraction3055 Run an egg loop knot. That way, you can put eggs (or skein if that’s what you guys call them) directly on the hook and secure with the egg loop. Lose the bead entirely. I guarantee you a 20:1 hookup ratio. Try it. Run it through that same hole. And hook up everytime.
First! Seeing all these king videos popping up in my feed is getting me hyped for this season! Love the videos guy!

Braid on a centerpin?? No…. use maxima mono.
@@Ifish24-7 maxima is good stuff for sure
@@sbsoutdooraction3055 braid will cause much more birds nests and is actually harder to cast on a pin.
Your hook sets need a little finesse …….let them take it first count to two then set the hook.
Depends on the day. Sometimes yes, sometimes kings also just nip once and thats all
You need heavier gear. They shouldn’t be breaking off that easily.
Just braid problems. Not a gear weight issue
Setting way too hard.
Always looks more on camera. Just a normal set on a shallow float
broi is opulling the bait out of the salmon mouth and is getting upset... dude you're literally yanking those bobbers so hard, no wonder the line gotten messy from backlash, not only are salmon bones are thick, they're going to take a minute to hook yet you rip the hook that's barely set right out of their mouth.... frustrating video to watch
@@EnderDragonGamerz02 still have to swing a little to get hooks through skein and set right. Also a small river so could tone the sets down a little with being so close
Your hook set is too snappy/jerky. Try a slightly slower set , raising the rod high and firm
@@sbrydson that is good advice, in small shallow water especially. Have found that to be true 👍
Bro let them eat it and slowly set the hook your not trying to rip their jaw off
Not always the case with early kings. Notorious for nipping and light biting
Not a bait fisherman
👍
Why are you putting the eggs so far above the hook? Is it a regulations thing in Michigan? No one over here in the PNW runs their eggs that way. No one.
That looks like an Alaska flossing rig.
Not going to lie… tough watch. Breaking off fish and yanking it out of so many mouths.
Woof.
@@PNW-GuyDudeman the eggs are attached to the hook by a loop knot?
@@sbsoutdooraction3055
Run an egg loop knot. That way, you can put eggs (or skein if that’s what you guys call them) directly on the hook and secure with the egg loop. Lose the bead entirely.
I guarantee you a 20:1 hookup ratio.
Try it. Run it through that same hole. And hook up everytime.
i think you are striking too hard
