@brandondaniel6253 yeah I bought both number 1 and 2. I caught on both, but I bought more of the Number 1, they seem like a good size.

@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures yeah i found after 2 seasons the 2 hooks just wernt big enough to get a good set mayve also because i use hard beads 10mm the hook was a bit small can you do a video on how you make that roe?! It looks so good

I made a SHORT, check it out.

@Pray4Mojo1 Yeah, all rods can break, I used the lighting rod for a couple of seasons before I broke the very tip-off. I just put a new tip eye on the rod and have been using it for a couple more seasons with no issues and bought new replacement rods, but I'm still using the same shortened one, haha. I use powerpro 20 pounds. Yeah, mono vs. braid is a matter of personal choice and comfort. I dont think all people should switch to braid on float rod if they like mono. On spinning rods for twitching i think braid is superior choice.

@Beyar90 yeah, it's barely over and already waiting for next season!

@JohnSmithens12 i have never used scents on beads and have caught plenty of fish on them. You should try floating shorter and try that out. I think it's more a matter or your float fishing technique and location that the use of the wrong bead or no scent. It can't hurt though.

@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures thank you 👍

@JohnSmithens12 best of luck... Just watch this video in detail and hope you pick up the pearls on how to float fish successfully. It is a skill developed over time though. A lot of the success has to do with the water you pick to float.

You nailed it, I'm surprised I didn't catch any small mouth bass.

Yep cultus lake northern smallmouth salmon

@markhillquiwag1646 Mark go take a walk around the river. That's the only way to find places to fish. It changes every year. This is not a name that spot youtube fishing account.

@ too far for me to walk im from whiterock

@@markhillquiwag1646 Ok, try the Little Campbell then.

Good question. Some years I have fished mostly soft beads because they were highly effective. Last year I caught a lot of fish on beads. For some reason this year I have done much better on roe. I usually try beads if my roe isn't working. So I usually do always start with roe especially since I always have a good supply. Some days guys are slaying on beads and then I'll just switch to bead since pretty convenient.

@aksyonov100 no, I just got straight braided line right to my swivel and then the fluorocarbon leader. I guess if you are concerned about being more undetectable in super clear water you can tie a longer mono or fluorocarbon bumper at the end and put your float on that. I haven't done it but I may try for this upcoming steelhead season. I just don't feel it makes a difference for salmon using the low vis green, brown or white power pro braid.

@@mikeboston421 excellent, glad you think so. Keep thinking I'm aging out of this youtube thing, haha.

@lfong9369 yeah, I have more coho fishing videos coming. The next is a 30 min one that's starts with coho fail and chumfest following. Just so many bobber downs.

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures When are you calling it for season on the vedder? I heard you say it was slowing down last week, have you still been making trips out??

I fished Monday, Tuesday and Thursday last week. And could have gone Friday and Sunday, but didn't .... so I'm feeling done even though there are still fish around. I had a great season. Lots of fishing, plenty of fish caught. I'm pretty satisfied taking a break and getting some sleep.

No problem, hope someone finds a few useful tidbits here. Thanks for watching.

Haha... yes this is a long one with lots of fishing theory talk involved amongst some catching of fish. As far as the jigs go, I started using them because of my buddy. Was his little outside the norm presentstion. Now we saw BNR is going to start releasing this product. I just buy the parts and put them together myself and then tie the hook leaders separately.

Congratulations on becoming a parent! Thanks for watching. Glad it virtually gets you out there.

@markhillquiwag1646 looks like lower to me. Not aware of any rock removal in the upper river this year. I think the Vedder trail system is along what is considered to be the lower river.

@ is that in peach park?

@@AndrewDejong-y7q I think this will be the 5th time I am answering this in the comments section. NOV 1ST.

Yup, Petr Herman came by on his way to another spot. Always nice to talk to Petr out there. Everyone should stop by his channel for more Vedder River fishing Content. He puts out a lot of helpful information! @petrhermanadventures9509

lol

I don't fish for chinook much, but I heard his dug out was full of chinook as well this fall and guys were catching a lot in here.

@@ryanwong1930 Nov 1st, 2024.

Time flies.

@avid.venture yes, the method of use is more important than the actual tool.

OK, didn't see you out there. I fish with a reel.

It's pretty slow now, not much fish left to catch. Might get the odd one if you're lucky. You can still fish the remaining edges even though the island is gone.

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures when did you go out a film this video?

@@Maxfishingbc you're the third person to ask this question in the comments. November 1st, 2024.

I just have to ask cause you said you are 12 and the Vedder is a long drive for you. How exactly are you driving to the Vedder? You have an electric scooter or bike?

@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures My parents or my grandpa drives me.

Glad you enjoyed it. I know everyone has their opinions on media and it's use in every part of life. Some areas are more sensitive than others. I try not to bring unnecessary attention to little fisheries. I don't name a lot of places, but do name a few that are more well known by the masses already. I'm sure there are people who have issue with videos even like this. I usually wait a bit to post these as well... I have been fishing this spot this last week and usually only 2 to 4 people per side. So have at it whoever wants to try to catch the last few coho going through. Not sure if this spot will survive the winter and spring high water times. We will see next summer how things look. So nobody fished lures in the 90s??? That is interesting. Lure fishing is what got me into river and coho fishing. I didn't start trying till I moved to the area around 2015. Thanks for commenting.

Fluorocarbon bumper as discussed in the Video. He asked me why I had a six inch piece of clear line. I usually tie on a 5 to 10 foot piece and it just slowly disappears because I change my hooks often and re-tie often.

@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures whoops must've missed that part while skipping through. What's your preferred braid to fluro knot?

@sabotar I just use a uni to uni Knot but there are many.

This was on November 1st, 2024 at 8 AM till about 9:20 AM. I've done well up until Monday of this week. I caught two wilds and one hatchery coho and that is the last coho for me this week. Was out a couple more times and only chum.
