That whirlpool spot is dangerous. I was fishing there with one other guy. We were wading up to the hole and he had the gravel give way under his feet and slid into the fast stuff. Fortunately we got him out and no harm done but it was hairy there for a little bit. But it is loaded. Can't count the number of hookups I had there.
9 foot 9 weight, 17lb main line to micro barrel swivel, with 12 lbs tippet no longer than 4 feet. Different weights depending on flow. My go to this trip was estaz eggs. Good luck!
Nice snag on the first two fish.
Call it what you want, but for me, it was a fair catch fish...in the mouth and all the fish I catch I release. If you go, good luck!
Such a clear floss…targeting them in inches of water!
@alexrocco5224 God bless brother. I guess the Lord was at my side!

Great video, can’t wait to get up there! Are these feeder streams feeder streams on the upper or lower? The whirlpool looks familiar
Probably one of the best videos I’ve seen on the Salmon River. We’re headed to the DSR in a few weeks
The one that I mentioned is on the lower half of the DSR. Good luck!
@@CruzN4Fishdo you always snag all the fish you “catch”
Lil dong some like it in the butt, but my seem to be in the mouth!😅
What setup are you using? I'm going to try flyfishing this season and was curious

They call them root balls.
I've never heard that referenced before, but thanks for sharing.😅
I refuse to pay, to fish that river..
Snagging fish for hero shots is disgusting.
Catch and release my brother! Fish on!
Everyone snags them once they hit the river dude.
