Welcome to a new addiction. Ditto on most of the spawn sack responses. Not really needed here in the NW. I would suggest subscribing to a couple of the northwest fishing mags. As mentioned learning run timing and various techniques and setups is necessary to effectively fish different types of water. Learn to read water and where fish will hold. Salmon and steelhead like different water. Slower pools for salmon. Steelhead like cover and flow. The magazines give great basic information on both species. Have you read all the tips Bob has posted on PP? Good tutorials. Youtube has videos on just about everything. Lastly I would strongly suggest contacting Bob or one of the advertising guides on this site to take you fishing. You will learn more in one float than you can learn on your own in several years.
