I watched a boat yesterday had 22 on in 4 hours while i was there, not sure how many they had before i got there.What pissed me off is they were anchored 30 feet from the bank in front of a normal plunking spot and the guys there said they came in to the spot while they were fishing, had words and were told basically so what, get over it. That guide had the whole river but chose to sit right there where the bankies usually fish. Water also came up 2 feet while i was there. 100 degree weather in CA plays a part in the water flow.It is starting, i had 5 on yesterday and i only fished for 2 hours. 22 on in 4 hours might have been why he fished where he did? if he came in after the bank guys thats kind of messed up, but these fish run really close, so boats/bankies will always have issues, where I fish bank guys are all around but I TRY and give them as much room as I can, we cna all fish and have fun.
Are you pulling plugs? Bait divers? How are you getting them in the heavy current and can you drift fish for them? Never fished the Big water for steelies. I imagine your still working the softer seams.
Thanks! I've got to try that, sounds like a blast!
the fishing is great right now and only 1500 fish a day are going over the dam

I know anchor fishing is productive, but you will never do it again after a day floating the bogi, queets, ho, the duc, etc. Not trying to jack business from anyone, but you can't even compare the two styles of steely fishing.MS
