I'm taking a good buddy of mine fishing @ barrier tomorrow. He's really excited but I'm scared that he may get frustrated with the constant snag ups, crossing lines, etc. Is there something I can do to make sure he has a good time. I know that catching a fresh silver would probably cure that, but I don't want him to get down on fishing because things don't go his way on his first trip out. He loves to fish. That's not the question. But steelhead/salmon fishing is a whole different ballgame. How can I get this guy hooked on fishing without getting frustrated. That is my question..... I know how intimidating the Cowlitz can be, especially for a newbee. Any advice?
