Let the circus commence!
What did you get them on? I am going to be using 3in squid hoochies on a 1/8oz (I think its 1/8th??) jig head again this year. I freaking killed them using only those last run in 09 - in the river.

2 days of busy fishing, we brought home 7 :IBCOOL:. Many were caught, but it is slow.
Saw some sokeye milling around by the bar. Couldnt getem to bite.
The beach is about 1/4 it's normal size.
They did some erosion work, but most of it is underwater.
The exposed beach is prime real estate. Starts filling up at 4am. I got the first fish at 5:01 this mornin. 8)
Lots of skeeters. :'(

Hi,
Would anyone mind helping a newbie out on how to rig to fish a river for a Humpy? From the picture it looks like there is a pink jig with a spin and glow above it.... Do you use a leader for this rig? Would it be pink jig (or pink hootchie), spin and glow on a leader, then some weighted swivel thing, then mainline? Do you use a float with this or do what I think people call "jigging"? Just drop it in the water near the shore?
Thanks... as you can see I am not really sure. :)

I've caught them plunking with spin N glo & sand shrimp, plunking sand shrimp by itself, casting dick nites with slip weights or split shot, jig under float, humpy spoon or wicked willie - but last run I tried using a pink 3" squid (or hoochie) over a 1/4oz or 1/8oz jig head (depending on current) and it worked so good that was all I used all year and limited every time out. Its simple, cheap - and it works. I freaking killed them last year - well last run in 09 - and would catch 4 fish in a half hour, no joke. If I were you I would just use that and some shrimp gel scent. Cast it out and let it sink for a bit, then reel back slowly with a quick flip or two, let it sink, reel, flip, set hook, bonk & bleed - repeat. Or just anchor over a hole if you are in a boat and drop it over the side and reel/flip in slowly. I also used clear UV squids with pink or purple stripe, blue squid, and they all caught fish but the blue seemed a bit slower. That's all I'm using this year unless I go out and everyone else is catching them and I'm not, then I'll think about switching. I use that jig tied right to the main line of 6 or 8# mono on a 6.5 or 7' light rod and have some fun! Good luck man!
