You are in luck. Our next meeting will focus on salmon/steelhead fishing. Your question "How to make salmon bite?" would be a good one for our guest speakers. Hopefully they'll be able to answer the question. Their topic is right on time for the steelhead season and maybe some late Coho's. See you there, Dick.
: Last week I went to Estabrook again to try my luck. I literally had to push several salmon out of the way in order to wade in below the fall there.
: In spite of an abundance of fish, I didn't get anything to go for my long red/white streamer. I cast it into the tail waters and let it drift downward while slowly retriving the line.
: I must be doing something wrong because the guy next to me landed a big one. Maybe he was bottom fishing, I didn't see him cast much. I guess he had a heavy weight fly rod as it didn't take him long to land the salmon either.
