- Kyle goes into a fairly in depth description on how to go about catching more Sockeye in the Brewster Pool. This Brewster Sockeye fishery is amazing, but year in year out we get a ton of questions from guys that are struggling to catch fish. Learn about leader length, blades, hook set ups and more.
Fished Wells dam this week, got chinook, was struggling with sockeye. Told my friend, who was in the boat, “see that boat, that’s Kyle, he posted a video yesterday, we need to watch it, I bet there are some tips there”. We watch a video, sure enough he recommended a bit longer leaders than what we had. I’ve put in a bit longer leaders, we got 6 sockeyes in an hour, before couldn’t get one for two hours. My friend asks me, “why does he do that?” Does what? Tells everybody how to catch em?
I don’t know… Because he is a great guy.
Thank you Kyle for being a great guy and taking your time to help us catch more fish and have more fun on the water. You are a legend.
I agree completely. Kyle ( and very few other guides) are confident enough in their abilities to actually share details. I'm a DIY guy but if I ever hire a guide it will most likely be Kyle Jones.
Ive always questioned my bow mount vs kicker for these exact reasons.
All good info..a lot of ratards still wont do this stuff but what your saying is gold.
Saw you out there on Friday smashing it. Little deckhand was amazing, netting and setting. Safe travels to the coast. Saw you had really downsized your presentation, the Kill-R Lures boat (Maroon old Duckworth) was keeping pace with you and we did good, but man I've never seen so many bites as I did on your boat. That port rod got bit, lost a fish, rebaited back in and got bit again, saw that like 3 times, just crazy. Thanks for the tips on TH-cam going to have to up my game next year. Ryan
We have a blast out there, and the kids getting to deckhand is an absolute bonus. We will see you out there next year
Long time listener, first time caller! Love your videos, sir! Thanks for the comments, I don’t have a bow mount motor, so the information was very helpful as I run my kicker.
@@NotComplicit1776 thanks for being a long time listener. We really appreciate it
Great advice!! Thanks
Great info Kyle! Wish I had time to drive down there and try out that fishery. We are doing well here in Astoria on the Ocean Coho and Chinook. See you down here in August!!
@@EK-wv9vb going to be a great season
Extremely helpful man I really appreciate you sharing you knowledge and info it is very helpful for us that are just trying to get into salmon fishing
Kyle, thanks for all the great info over the last several months. You are right on with the tuning of the dodgers, use of kicker motor, and change up of speed. what is the best size and length of net for landing sockeye?
I like the beckaman nets. Just doesn’t by the cheap hex handle. By the more expensive round handle net
Good stuff! This year, I've been running bow mount. Every day was a different speed up and downhill. Was nice using the bow mount, but i stay between the docks and the pumps just to not create a cluster up where most the boats are! Great tips Kyle!
@@jmdixon519 nothing wrong with using the bow mount. I just think the constant changing of speeds while operating a kicker with the tiller handle gets me more fish faster. It would be way more enjoyable for me to just stay away from the crowd and hit the easy button with the bow mount
Great info Kyle!
Any bank fishing spot along upper columbia? No boat and cannot afford a trip yet. Thanks for all your great work.
Hey, check out tri cities, I think Kenwick or Richland. They have really good bank sockeye fishing. And people limit out fast. Should be some videos on it. Good luck.
Wanapum dam has good shore access by the boat ramp. Watched a guy haul in a king last week
@@Unknown-yt4cy do people
Plunk from shore? Or cast spinners
Mr. Jones as usual you answered questions. That whole water flow thing really is my problem and I didn't realize you could bend the dodgers..I got a cheap fish finder which really doesn't show the fish well I just usually want water temp depth and speed but mine says knots??😢 need to upgrade soon hopefully.. Thanks a ton again..
Don’t worry about what the speed says. Your dodgers will tell you. I will get a video tomorrow of what im looking for
@@jonessportfishing I can't wait cause I really don't understand that thump for sockeye
@@jonessportfishingso 4 onz at 24 feet your at what depth and it has to be at a certain speed right?? I've been down four the last three years and man it's brutal.. The heat and sleep in the front seat of the truck and heat spanked bro.. I'm trying not to give up but he'll. I grew up in the Clearwater this wa. Stuff just blows my mind.. I'm way too invested in it and I'm a fishn crazy person. My brother thinks I'm nuts for going down again.. But damn I've learned to smash the walleye and steal head on the Clearwater from Idaho to Washington. But brewester is my nemesis!! And i don't no quit.. North Idaho born and raised just isn't in my blood..
@@nolebrady8256 totally depends on speed, they fishing around 15 feet down.
It's more about line angle than speed.
great content. love it!!
Whats your thoughts? I run my bowmount on a low speed and have my kicker going but locked straight but control my speed with the kicker and steer with the bowmount. I will kick in and out of gear , make turns and have related that action creates good fishing action. I just like my security blanket of the bowmount controler. Your a quality guide we have fished Wells and the Pool lots of times when your there.
I think you are doing it correctly, and I don’t want to sound like I’m against the bowmounts. I have one and will use it when I want to relax, or am dealing with difficult boat handling conditions. I think varying your speed is critical, what I often see is guys just setting a speed and coarse with the bowmount and never making any adjustments.
You are actively fishing, and that’s why you are consistently catching fish.
Shade? At brewster? 😅😅Thanks for the vid Kyle!
What are those rubber things called in front of your line lead slider?
I have some les gear. In Quincy wa.
I’ve never trolled but wanting to learn. If you want pictures of the dodgers let me know
Is this in Brewster wa? Can u fish from a kayak there? How deep?
@@hpmdarrick6804 you can fish from a kayak. 20 feet on the line counter with 6oz and 24 with 4

Hey Kyle. Wendell Scism here. I was wondering how you run your livescope transducer... on the transom or on a pole. I'm getting ready to set up a brand new boat and could use some advice on this new tech.
I run it on a pole. That’s the way to go so you can move it around to look. I use a minkota trolling motor shaft in a transom mount. It’s way more sturdy than most of the “high” end stuff that is made for livescope use. Most stuff is meant for crappie fisherman who don’t ever deal with current
Right on man thanks for the tip. I’ll keep an eye out for you up there next weekend
What do you think of soaking your shrimp overnight
@@dougzahradnek-mu2ll I think it can work well, only thing you need to watch is that sometimes different scents will actually soften your shrimp.
You said 6oz in the bow. Do you just go 6,5, and 4s in the back if running 6 rods?
@@kylefoust9606 6,6,4
You see anybody fishing the banks out there?
Not much bank fishing in the Brewster area
@@jonessportfishing thanks for the reply love the videos and info you provide fish on buddy
You forgot the most important part, Get your gear in the water!
Yep
