Here's How... this is the "line" I used in my wooden drift boat with water level at mid summer flows.

Shortly after we were allowed back into the facility, one of our top priorities was to re-collect enough broodstock to hit egg take goals. We made it! Watch us spawn Chinook by removing eggs from the females and fertilizing with the males. We even have a Fish Health Specialist on hand to check the fish for disease issues.

We used Powerbait and Pautzke salmon eggs to see which bait trout like more. It ended up being no contest. We set up a Carolina rig to fish off the bottom. Trout setup: 5'6" ultralight rod with a size 2500 reel and 6# line. Pautzke Trout Bait: https://amzn.to/34Ok9SU
