I would like to get some opinions on holding water as salmon are migrating upriver. I see the majority of people fishing the tailout of a hole. Is this because of the quality of the drift or is it because that is where the fish are? I've always read that salmon like deep and slow water, in tailouts the water is speeding up and shallower. If you are fishing a classic stretch of river at first light do you head to the tailout first? I personally like to cover the whole stretch if I can. I've also heard that coho will hold in all areas of a river, true or not?
