A month ago I was working a stretch that had salmon holding and moving. In 1 spot fish were rolling and I missed 2 fish with spinners then nothing with spinners or spoons. I put on a 1/2 ounce marabou jig with long feathers my wife had made. 3 casts later I hooked and landed a nice 14 lb Coho. I look at it as another weapon in my arsenal.
