What kind of bait.
« on: May 07, 2009, 08:39:31 AM »
My neighbor gave me some chinook this last year and it was great so I figured I would give it a try to get some of my own. The Yakima will open on the 16th for spring chinook and was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on a good set up for some good fishing. Thanks in advance.

A float and eggs will work just fine! Better the eggs, better the bite! If you dont have them, the best you can buy is Scott Ammermans. Pricey, but worth it.

I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me to.

Bobber and eggs or drifting eggs and a corkie on the bottom.  If you have a driftboat then you can back troll plugs and or spin n glo and eggs.  Good luck.  Yak springers are a ton of fun.

I second the bobber and eggs. I caught a Springer this last weekend on some eggs I cured with Ammerman's...its good stuff. I also caught one on ProGlo, and two on Last Supper, so I don't think they were being too picky.  ;)
