Hello all... I've lurked here a bit and I'm finally registered. I get a lot of good information from this site and I'm to the point where I think I can ask questions without looking like a complete mooyak (the guy with the line tangled in the tree, that's me).

After about 15 years of not fishing (and catching nothing when I was fishing) I'm back in to it. About a month and a half ago I caught my first silver on the Kalama and now I can't stop. I'm looking forward to my first steelhead.

I see all this talk about jigs. Could someone be so kind as to point me in the direction of some information? How are these set up? What is the typical leader length, etc? What type of water do you fish with jigs? I was at the Washougal today and the water was running pretty quickly. Do you use a float or just bump the bottom with them?

Thanks to everyone for imparting your knowledge on such a neophyte. Someday maybe I can return the favor!

LD
