last week i was heading up to reiter and noticed no one was fishing near the bridge so i decided to fish the wallace instead.
i floated jigs and it was a coho every 1-3 cast so i put my phone in a tree and got this footage. Enjoy:) bobber down at 2:20

I did get a steely take down on my first cast but after a few head shakes and a flash it came off

Well if there's fish I'll be up there monday. Can't stand combat fishing when there's 5x as many anglers as fish. ](*,)

BTW- Just a side note, but has anyone tried drift-fishing plugs like small kwickfish or flatfish? I picked some up from Cabela's today intending to try it, and wanted to know if anyone's had any success using them in that way.

Instead of trying to "drift" them, on small rivers like the wallace get above the slot your going to fish and work the plug down slowly. Just pull a little line off at a time till you are as far as you can get it to work.
