Sue n I have caught 100's of Ho's on D.N.s (even in Forks).Coho bite D.N.s simple as that.
You can floss fish easier w/ a 2/0 hook on a long leader than a D.N. The "SLOW" UP river retrieve is the most effective when on anchor or bank fishin w/ deep water at your feet... a longer and lighter lb test leader allows the D.N. to wobble the way its made to...20lb ain't gonna let the spoon do its job...Almost ALL the fish are near the BOTTOM so enuf lead (1/4-1/2oz) is needed to get it NEAR the bottom...turn the handle on your reel about the speed of the second hand on a clock...Color is easy 50/50,frog,chart. tip,red tip... all in the 1 size will work...2's work and so do pee wees, but 1's are the norm...The FACT is if YOU want to be an ILLEGAL ASSHOLE DON"T FISH NEAR US... and it doesn't take a dick nite on the end of your line to be an A@@HOLE... seen LOTS of people throwing eggs on the Hoh when it's artifical only...Don't think ALL dick nite fishers are flossers...enough said...
