Hope you guys enjoy my best day salmon fishing on the river this year. It's been a struggle getting on consistent numbers of fish but the grind has finally paid off! I couldn't even fit all my hookups and bobber downs in this video so I picked some of my favorites.
There's one. Oh my god. Oh.
Yes sir. Yo what's going on guys? Chiefs here really quickly before the video kicks off. I
just want to say that I hope you guys enjoyed. You guys are about to see the best day I have had
skein fishing all of this fall. This year has been kind of a weird run. Just weird trickles here and
there. We got one really good heavy push a couple weeks ago but all the footage that you guys are
seeing were a few weeks ago and I'm excited to share it with you guys. If you want to help

Oh. What is it? I don't know yet. Yeah it's just a jack. It's not a big one.
Should be coming right here. All right. Nice.
Okay. Another jack. I did so basically this whole trip I've only gotten two little jacks.
So still trying to get the core here but I'll take a fish. Nice. It's a late run. It's um.
What do we do? Want to get the hook out? You got it? Oh wow. Nice fish man.
They're probably when you say probably 20 maybe. Maybe maybe a little more a little less. Yeah.
I don't know. Nice fish. Nice. Cool.
You're gonna want.
That's a.
That's a really big fish dude. Matt brought you here. Slicing water in the glistening sunlight.
Oh. Get it off. Dude you could just like. There you go. Oh yeah. It looks like it.
It looks like a very similar fish. Wow. That's a chromer. Wow. Dude that's a chrome fish.
Wow. Nice fish. There you go Mike. There you go. Is that your first fish?
I might have a buddy that I'd come up and uh. Oh yo. What the heck?
He's a king. Dude he came. I was reeling in my line. He came up and hit that.
All right. He's coming right at you I think inside. Yeah it's just a jack. All right.
Little dude. Another jack. What is my luck today Mike? Nice. Uh-oh. There we go. Turn it.
It's a mid. It's a mid high 20.
Dude I don't know. He's up there. High 20s. Nah. It's not 30 but it's high 20s.
That's a giant dude. Here hold him down. A little lower. A little lower. That is sick bro. Holy.
What did I say? Yeah. That's a chromer. Dude that's a big. Dude that's a monster hen.
Dude that's straight chrome. Dang man. Oh dude dude. I don't see. Oh okay. Yeah well.
Turn her belly towards me. Yeah there you go. It looks. Yeah it looks more chrome.
Yeah. Oh no dude. He's under the log. He's under the log.
Dude no no no. Dude. You got him?
I don't think that'd be nothing crazy. We'll just get a little shot of him.
Yeah. Nice fish. Big shoulders. He's struggling there buddy. I know. He's still got some
in him so. Yeah. All right let's let him go. You only took him on your phone or no?
Um. Nah it's all good. Bro this is. I've. I don't know. I've like. I haven't really ever had a day
like this. I don't think so man. I haven't like 15 fish on. Even in the prime of the run sometimes
you don't. I don't know. Dude we're like 50. Dude we've hooked like on all floats. Like I've hit
steelhead limit days and I've limited out on salmon on floats but like. I don't know dude.
Dude it is heavy.
Dude it feels really heavy. Yeah. Dude no. I'm done. It's so deep in a hole right now.
Oh dude it just broke off of something. Oh it's back. It's back. It's back.
Tank hen. Dude this thing is huge. All right yo what's going on guys. Really quickly I just wanted
to go over the rig that I was running for this video. Nothing really has changed. I got the
2500 Strattec. It's absolutely covered in skein right now so it's kind of hard to see. It's
honestly very disgusting. We've got the nine foot six medium moderate action Fenwick HMX.
Main line 20 pound power pro. And starting up top with the terminal tackle we are going to have
ourselves a 15 gram blood run float. And then as you guys can see right here a micro swivel
connecting both lines with a fisherman's knot. This is going to be a 20 pound fluorocarbon
maximum leader. Just below my bobber I have a size 5 split shot. And then we're going to have
another swivel right here connecting my bobber leader to my main leader. This is a blood run
micro swivel. Right here we have three size 4 water gremlin split shot. Bobber leader by the way.
This bobber leader, this first leader, is about two and a half feet long. And then I'm going to
have it matched with another two and a half feet of the same pound test line. Sometimes I run a
little bit lighter but especially in like the more woody areas and stuff and smaller rivers.
I like to use stronger line with kings because they're always diving into brush. So just below
my micro swivel right here on my main leader line we are going to have two blood run micro bb split
shot right here just to help get the bait down to the bottom. And for the hooks I'm going to be
running a egg loop knot on a raven sickle hook. And then we also have a trailer hook beneath it.
I think this is a one-aught octopus mosquito hook or something like that. I found that this
dropper hook was a lot more effective especially when there's kind of like a smaller bite to it if
they're just kind of chomping at it. I was getting more hookups with it. It wasn't until halfway
through this video that I actually started tying this on. Just the standard you know one-aught
hook alone itself hooks a lot of fish on this game. But sometimes when the bite's a little bit
slower fish are a little bit more finicky or they're not biting as hard having this trailer
hook is very ideal. So I definitely can say I landed a couple extra fish because of it. And
in general I would have to say that my my skein setup for bobber fish and king salmon really
hasn't changed other than the fact that I have this trailer hook behind it. So yeah guys I just
wanted to give you a quick breakdown on the rig that I ran in this video. I hope you enjoyed.
