i dont fly fish!!!!!what are other options for a wader?

To fish the Sauk I would go to Darrington and head North to the Skagit.

The first great hole for Nates is where the tribe river meets the Sauk and right off the road watch the sliding rocks!!!

Many of the best holes are dirt roads and remote but there are a few good ones right off the main road but its best in a drift boat or Toon.

It is also one of the 1st little river systems to go out and come back in

The upper Skagit above Rockport has beef as well:cyclopsan :chef:

Is there much float-n-jig water down there or mostly drift fishing?

curado · Post by **curado** » Tue Mar 03, 2009 5:33 pm

oh yeah great drift and float water i got a nice dolly out of there

I am old school but truth with a pink worm or puffer=ball using the float you will get more takedowns + Awesome Float waters:-$

is the strech by the mouth of the suittle a good area

Yeppers they acclimate right there

in numbers but the 20lbers and up are remote dirt roads Swede stuff, very remote stuff.

The confuence hole let it sit in the tail out for about 10 secs after you complets your drift before you do another drift they smack it many times it the tail out while the flows move it ever so lightly.

Make sure your in the Sauk only:-$ the other will be $$$ and tribe waters

how you fish those puffer balls?under bobber or free drift?

swedefish4life1 · Post by **swedefish4life1** » Wed Mar 04, 2009 12:12 am

Both will work just fine:-$

IF ITS REAL STICKY BOTTOM THE FLOAT IS THE OPTION

I ALSO DRIFT FISH THE FLY BIG TIME IN CATCH AND RELEASE LOVE THEM BUT POUNDING THE BOTTOM DRIFT FISHING THEM:-$

More important the bigger question is leader length and Did I Say Clear!!!!!

salmonfinder · Post by **salmonfinder** » Wed Mar 04, 2009 11:16 am

so than you use them on a fly rod only than?or you just use them on regular rods?

swedefish4life1 · Post by **swedefish4life1** » Wed Mar 04, 2009 11:23 am

Where does it say Fly Rod anywhere in my posts????
I drift fish flies with a drift rod for 20 plus years during CR#-o = GL-3 STR LOOMIS fast action 1025C fishing death!:-$

Please JUMP out of the little Black Box most fish in pound and ground the bottom with them!!!:cheers:

Sliding slinkies, floats DRIFT FISHING#-o they work sweet during CR:-$

My Puffers balls even better and they love the PINKIE PLASTIC WORMER:-# :chef:

Swede,

Yeah, leader length. I've got some 10lb flouro to tie up some more leaders. And, I got that slinky making kit you mentioned.

Do you add anything to your puffers to help them float?

I made me some of these, but in the Saukster SwedishMeatball color pattern

(and a little smaller profile)

Now if this was Bonics Class

1st= I would use smaller Colored Gamas only

2. Match the body, puffer, corkies, presentation to the hook color!!!:-$

3. Your Floats will work Great but I would use color not white:-$

4. FISH ON!!!

PS add a drop of Chartruse in there with the pink twisting the yarn together will making your goodies:cyclopsan :chef:

As they say match the hatch=down to the hooks to your Body and colors the biggest mistake most drifters MAKE!:-$
