Good afternoon:
I am new to salmon fishing. I cannot believe I am a native from Washington State and have never landed a salmon! I would like to try fishing from the bank on a river. Would the forum members offer me some suggestions:
What river can I try?
What lure should I use? Dick Nite?
How do I set up my rod? I currently have a 8'6" steelhead rod Shimano medium action
What weight of line do I need to use?
I have a set of waders and have no problem getting into the water

Thanks for all the information
