Had a great time but didn't get the fly rod out. We were trolling or mooching and the fish were 20-40 feet deep. Hooked about 6 but only boated two one wild one hatchery. The run was tapering off and our guide made ours the last trip of the year. I will send him some flies to try out and I am sure they will work trolled conventionally but not sure if they would be effective with fly gear. I would do it again and hopefully get a chance to try the flies.
Been slow in lower Columbia
Thanks for report
If had time to dedicate could definitely pick up a salmon on fly
I have hooked up with on a fly on the Columbia shad fishing with my six weight
I just break off but cool to see a 7 ft fish jump next to boat
