as i said for the past few years i have been using a float and roe ... but when stream fishing i got all confused beacause i had floater in my egg sacks and the guys beside me caught fish and i had no hits. but last time i went i asked a man "you good at steelheadin? and he said "well i've caught a couple in my time" his technique was a small float, 6-8 lb, line roe with no floaters in them, 2 sinkers, small hook, and his hook was spread about 2 m from the float...his secret was popping one of the eggs to release the scent
