Ya so I went to norrish, and the first hour or so, nothing then up came the fish, and I hooked into like twenty in an hour, landing probably 8 or 9.  A couple of guys just down stream just kept saying another one.  It was fabulous.  So glad I went out.  Kept one nice little one, 5 pounder or so.
Thanks again guys, Dave

Oh ya I forgot to mention that the fishing came to a screaming hault when the hatchery guys came down and netted from up above the bridges all the way down past the bridges.

if you dont mind me asking.. what were you using?

[bmynbr]

Pink wool, and 1/0 hooks,

[Nicole]

1/0, 3/0 for coho? those are freaking huge...

You guys should be using size 2 or even size 4 when the water is clear...

I use size 8.

Cheers,
Nicole

I am sure Ghost Fish was being sarcastic. Think green wool and sockeye

You know I normally use #2 hooks, but I was tired when I tied my leaders, and made them really short so I use my 1/0

#6 with 6lb flouro with some white and pink wool

[HOOK]

HA HA green can actually be a really good colour when everyone around is using pinks,oranges and reds  also try using a small tuft of purple with roe 

im with Nicole on the small hooks for coho. biggest i use is size 4 unless there is to many chum around then i will use size 1's. I will start using small fly hooks next year however 

[Nicole]

Whew I was worried for you guys

Yep!  Also consider going to 6 lb fluro.

congrats dave, I fished norrish again today and the only luck I had was a really colored up buck, the fish were there but no takers. As far as hook size, I like to go between size 4 and 1 depending on the water. I actually find that size 4 can be a little small as far as leverage goes when you get a larger coho on. I would like to try a size 6 like some of you recommend, just to see what its like.

I like #1 and #2 s . Even with the chum up at the Check a month ago . Good report bmynbr .

Was there yesterday on the fly rod. Ended up landing one chum and that was it. Saw around 6-8 coho swimming around but could'nt entice a bite in the crystal clear and very low water. You can see the bottom anywhere you go on the river right now so I'm assuming the fish are gonna be really spooky.

Size 2 hooks are the only size in my vest

i think taking it eastcoast style would help, small 15gram float, 10lb main, tiny split shot, a #6 with 6lb flouro, and a single actual egg.
