When float fishing eggs from the bank, can a guy legally use a two hook leader rig ala side drifting from boat...or does it have to be a one hook leader only?
I can't find it in the regs - if anyone knows of the page number where it is found, please let me know. Thanks in advance,

Cowlitz below Barrier for springers. I don't own a boat, but primarily fish from one when my buddies are going out. However - I would like to fish this area more and will have to fish from the bank when going solo. Hope that helps - thanks,

Just place a bobber (corkie or cheater) in between the hooks and you should be golden.

Or...just use one hook. Two hooks is a good way to lose more than twice as many hooks...but not a better way to catch fish  Fish on... Todd

Awesome - thanks guys! Been hitting the Cow every couple of days out of the sled for B runs. It's been w/ mixed results. The weather has been typical march schizo madness. Rain, sun, hail, sun, snow, wind, sun, rain, repeat. I got a nice little 5 - 6 pound nate yesterday which surprised us. Waiting for the springers to start showing in numbers and lower water...c'mon lets go already!

I've caught quite a few finicky, light biting spring Chinook and fall Coho on the trailing hook. Agreed.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.
