Title: Fishing Brewster Pool
Post by: TheHunt on July 12, 2015, 06:24:19 PM: Can one be successful fishing from shore? I will be over that way and I thought about bringing my long casting rod.

IF one can fish from shore can you provide me some pointers?

Okanogan river dropped almost 10 degrees that could flush a bunch of them up river.

I just checked USGS site that shows 75 is the lowest so far and they will not go up until it goes below 70 I have heard.

About 4' leader with a line stop above bobber so an adjust depth you want shrimp to sit at. shallower in morning getting deeper as later in morning. This was working well above rocky reach last year from shore. would assume above wells would work.
