FF02,

Negative regarding being delighted when a salmon grabs my fly while I'm steelhead fishing. I matriculated from the old school where you earn demerits for hooking non-target species. And if you hook a pink or chum and play it to hand, you get two demerits for not breaking it off once you determine it's not a steelhead. And that's no matter how long it took to tie that particular fly.

In those days, incidental salmon were a distraction to steelheading and reduced the number of minutes in the day spent steelhead fishing. Now that I'm older and possibly wiser I tolerate distractions pretty well in the spirit of adding diversity to my life.

Regarding the Wog, I think it's worth a try because it fits what I've learned about change ups being important to productive coho fishing. Just have it in the gear rotation.
