Not that I have the need for flossing but If there using 2 to three ounces of lead there flossing rig is all wrong they should be using 3/4s to get that 12 to 14 foot leader drifting paralell through the fish. I have been fishing for springers for 17 years down there, among other places, I think I know a thing or two about the rigs. most the snaggers are down there in august when the springers are dark and spawning. That would be a good time for your digital camera FJ. FISH COMING DOWN! WHAT A BUNCH OF FRICKING MORONS!"this ones good for the smoker" LOOSERS! Thats a fishery that needs to go bye bye.

Glowball you dont have a clue. Its not a matter of being convinced its a matter of experience 17 years experience. The other side is where I first started river fishing I fished with the best and will forget more than most people will ever learn. Unless your Dezaree, Darwin, Bill, or Joe You were not there when I started springer fishing. I catch more fish than the few flossers will ever floss (7 to 10 fish a day) during the peak.

For the others out there alot of those (not all) fish coming down are hooked in the snappers, the water is quite a bit faster on the other side and the guys that know what there doing are using ten pound test. I have had many fish in the past take me around the corner. some fish run to the opposite side of the river and hold in the current, the only way to get them in is to run below the fish and pull them to you. The fish do bite!

Yes there are some snagged fish but that is the exception not the rule! This time of the year.

Its been my expierience in the past that The Guys that dont catch anything down there are the ones whining about snaggers. Dont make excuses just put your time in and someday you'll learn how to catch them (maybe). I am getting sick and tired of people that just want everything handed to them. Observe, Deduct Adjust,= fish on! How are you ever going to have respect for the resource unless you learn yourself? (kinda like dad giving you your first car)it just doesnt last. If your making an honest effort and are learning and not doing a bunch of whining Ill be more likely to help out.
