  • Went out this weekend and got lucky with 2 hatchery steelhead. One of them was a PIG. I was drifting a corkie with size 1 hook, 10lb leader. Fun time out there in the river.

    I hate the amount of flossers that go into that spot and camp where the fish hold. It’s ridiculous can’t even bother fishing with them around. I caught my first bobber dogging there in the Spring. When I pulled him it he had so many scars from foul hooks.

      nice, will try that at some point. How do you choose if you want to drift fish corky or bobber fish with a soft bead?

    • @fishingwithvu
      @fishingwithvu  Месяц назад

      In fast water it is better to drift to bring the offering down. Where the water slows down and gets deeper, then bobber fish with bait or bead is better

      For drifting, you need your weight to tap bottom as it travels down the river

      ​@@phule1901Ahhh makes sense because here in bc your only allowed one hatchery a day tho with a single barbless hook so it's a lot less forgiving when you're using them
