plunking for summer steel... Lets put it this way, if you were to go to the lower cowlitz you would not be alone. One thing for sure if you are plunking it should be either in tidewater or lower on a bigger river system (cowlitz) and usually requires a decent weight to stay down.. I would not "lighten up" too much, just down size your corkie and or spin-glows a size or two. Moving summer steel are not real line shy in my experience.
