Who knew?...ol Vlad Putin was infiltrating the WDFW Squawfish program as a way to test the waters for the sabotage of the 2016 presidential election!!!

Just a buoy and a long line with a bunch of hooks with bait.  They kill whatever bites the hook.  Probably catch a few walleye too but they eat salmon too

I did this once in the mid nineties. 
I had a job lined up in the fall, and decided to quit my current job and go fishing.
I fished almost exclusively from shore a few trips in a float tube or raft.  Drove around chasing the fish, often sleeping in the car. If I had a good day, I would either stay in a motel or go home.
It was way harder than I thought.  Started hating fishing for awhile after.  Totally burned out before the season ended.  I caught 636 pikeminnow. One tagged. Only a $75 gift certificate back then. 
I’ve tried a few times since with no luck.  I think it would be a lot harder now.
