Same thing, except I like using bait weights to get the eggs on the bottom, No.10 or 12.fishenfreak wrote:bobber, leader enough to have eggs tumble on bottom, hook. do thatBrat Bonker wrote:yeah kzoo you can find bobber water anywhere below 101 but 106 bridge down is more for bobber water but people use floats upstream as well in numerous places but I am partial to drift fishing eggs since they are tight to the bottom in most places. How do you rig your bobber rig?

Re: Skok-chat
alright easy enough I guess but are you guys using small keel sinker in between your leader and main line or split shot and any yarn on your hook, is it the same for coho there too?

Re: Skok-chat
I like using beau macs bait weights, they're some what shaped like an egg sinker, they're painted with different color. At least this is what I use for silvers, I've yet to get my first king!

Re: Skok-chat
Its been a pretty slow fishing week. The last 2 nights indians have been throwing firecrackers in the water scaring the fish into the nets. Ive been workin hard for my fish, i still got my limit today. Since friday ive put 104 pounds of king in the freezer

Well, will see you there Friday morn 5am to 1pm, hopefully it's gonna be at least decent for the drive, also sounds like the native Americans ruin it.

Re: Skok-chat
It does not ruin it if you are flossing zef plus fresh fish will still be pushing in slowly,maybe you just should not go, sounds like you are doubting yourself and fishing there for the first time alone just for a couple hours is not the smartest idea, you are going to be spending more time finding a place to fish and rigging up than actually fishing IMO.
