First I will fish at a location that I have been told about or have fished before, knowing fish could be there.


Time spent on a hole? I belive it depends on what type of presentation you choose. Spoons work faster in good water. Slow drifts and eggs take a little more time.
I spend no more that half hour at a good sized hole. But if I see fish at holes rolling and finning.
I will spend 2 hrs if need be.
I am also in the Puget Sound region and have not done too well this year.
I think some of our P.S region rivers need to be shut down for a few years. No nets and sport fishing!I hope the rivers will pick up but the numbers of fish just are not there. Tightlines.
