it can be hard to get them off the ground since the latest updates) with one of the nymphes attached, the different single spoons and of course the bullet spinners. If the cranks don't work out, you can also try the Medium Spoons, a #4/0 JigHead (don't go too heavy. Stand on one of the islands, do a full cast left and right, reel it in with an occasional stop / twitch, and find out where they are sitting. But you can use the bigger ones for fishing the main canal from the islands, going for the big Chinook, as Maj.Tryhard already mentioned. The shallow cranks with the #3/0 hook work for most areas, as most of them are not that deep. Dull colours for sunny weather, brighter colours for cloudy weather.

You can always try the different crankbaits. When it comes to lures, there's a lot of stuff that works in Alaska. Partly because I didn't try it that much, partly because of the strong current, which makes it pretty frustrating at times. I didn't have that much success with bobber fishing. I think so too.To me, Alaska is more of a spin-fishing location. I have to say with full responsibility that everything you wrote here is true. Now, i find the peak time to be weak and very empty. Many many months ago, before my big break from this game, peak times were great and almost in a frenzy state. How come it changed now ?Īlso finding frustrating that even at peak feeding times, the fishes don't bite that much. In the past, we used to cast our float right behind these rocks with success. The spot to the right, behind the rocks, i can't cast there no more. Well, our floating spots, because most know about them. 1 spot i know 99% i will not get this beast. 3 spots i know of where i used to fish them before. I caught some Salmon, but not that Trophy one i need. I will take a break from this state for now. Originally posted by DYEUZ:Did 5 days, with exclusively trying to catch this guy, with no success.
