8 Ft,
My thoughts exactly. When fishing salmon in a river, it is much more challenging than kicking back with your downriggers and fishfinders, with a beer in hand...

River fishing has more soul to it, more finess, and much more of a reward. If you fish the rivers on the right days after good autumn rains, you will get fresh fish that have just shot op the river, kinda like knowing when the good powder is going to fall and snowboarding the next day. I think I will start a new topic on this one...see main board.

Sky Guy.
