Just wanted to give a shout out to Fray. Fished many years with very little success, found flossing not very rewarding. Started watching you this Spring, gave me new excitement. Got a few arctic spinners and started cathing fish.

[@FishFray]

Awesome, glad to hear this!

Dude is definitely one of the best fisherman I have ever seen on KZbin

Yes, jigs are legal in most Michigan rivers but not all. Hook gap regulations are in effect only for certain rivers , but those rivers are most of the main salmon runs we have

@@FishFray Thanks 👍! I was curious because in NY rivers,to prevent Snagging, you can't do what is called Snatching, Blind Snatching or lifting, the latter looking a lot like twitching!! Again that was after the Ban on Snagging! PS, sorry 😔 to hear your are not guiding!!

Look for areas with slower current and deep enough that you can't see the bottom, and fish them hard! Don't get frustrated by visibile fish that won't bite.
