Howdy, Jig and bobber is a great addition to a steelheader's bag of trick's. Have you ever noticed how the other side of the river look's better. My advice is to use a fixed bobber about waist deep with your jig. position yourself upstream of the holding water and make short lob's in front of you, then position your bobber, and start freespooling keeping your line mended to a straight line toward's the bobber. don't worry about missing the hit, the tension of the bobber will keep the jig in the fishes mouth untill you pick up the slack. Just never assume that it's a rock and try to wiggle it off set and wait and see if it starts pumping.
