Use this method to land more COHO AND CHINOOK Salmon (Soft Beads)
Sep 30, 2023
Many anglers struggle with missed strikes and poor hook sets when using traditional bead setups. While "pegging" a bead 2-3 inches above the hook is a common practice on the Vedder River, it often leads to trailing hook issues and lost fish.
In this video, Go2Fishing reveals a game-changing adjustment: placing ClearDrift Soft Beads directly on the hook. This method significantly increases landing ratios, ensures perfect top-jaw hook placement, and prevents gear loss. Whether you are targeting aggressive Chinook or finicky Coho, this rigging technique is a "no-brainer" for serious river anglers. ------------- By:
