FALL CHINOOK FISHING WITH A PRO!  

Hey dumb questioned here but should I be using more weight in faster moving water?

@JavierMartinez-wo8cz yes absolutely u want the bobber traveling with the current,to much weight and to slow of a presentation,to little weight and it's going to go by fish to fast u want the bobber moving at the natural speed of the current

Okay right on, I appreciate the help! I was out not to long ago, running a 1oz setup on some fast moving current. Just didn't feel like it was fishing right. Like you said went to fast or my bobber didn't sit right in the water

@@JavierMartinez-wo8cz it's a must for bobber fishing needs to look natural going through the hole,but in a certain situation where the water is more turbulent and low visibility u can add just a little more weight for a searching rig,but that's when the water is high and off color,more weight to slow it down

They ain’t on top bud and the depth of the river varies. That’s all I’m going to say. Thanks for the support!

@PNWCOASTFISHING you treat it like its a secret. I don't even know what river your on. Lame and not helpful.

Chinook are at the bottom, a crank or two up so you don’t snag.

⁠He's not going to know key details given the fact that its his first chinook trip. Add a 3oz weight at the end of your leader, find the bottom, add the bobber stop at that spot in the line (where you feel bottom) and adjust from there. Hopefully that helps.
