Thing is......the way i see it we are encouraging this behavior.......every day there are posts on this site from people "snagging", "flossing", "catching" salmon in rivers, creeks, drainage ditches?......and they recieve a "Nice Fish", or "Good Day of Fishing" comment...........Someone please tell them that Salmon dont bite marshamllows, let alone anything when they come into creeks. They have one thing on thier mind!! And its not "Im Hungry" lol My rant!!
Bottom line....If you want to challenge yourself, and try and "catch" a salmon, hit the local pier and chuck lures, it may take 1000 casts, but you may just get one?
