Headwaters AR Salmon fishing hookup 9-29 pics and report.

I'm in for Wed.. can't make the 29 th. I have a birthday party for my little one .

Adam got me squared away last year on my anchored flat fish technique.  Had a really shitty hookup rate.  Now the Salmon are screwed.  Take notes.

Hey StephL, I was in my buddy's boat. We normally kayak fish a couple miles east of walnut grove for bass but he borrowed his dad's boat to do some salmon fishing. His dad was successful on wednesday, and caught a 8-10 black bass on friday over by wimpys. There was also a lady on a pedal kayak that was talking on her cell phone while trolling. I got snagged over by the bridge, I can't remember if I lost the lure though. There was another guy that was kayak fishing around 6:30-7 that put in at the same spot. One was a sandy color for the 6:30-7 kayaker, and the one a little later was a greenish brown? Was that you StephL? If so that old couple in that boat that was trolling was ridiculous! They must have been trolling at .5 mph, we were behind them at one point until they got snagged and hurried up and passed them. We had to constantly stop and reel our poles in, and then was a couple minutes and then start trolling again.

I was in the sand pedal kayak lol and the guy in the greenish kayak was steve i believe, i met him that day and he tried to help me with a snag. I lost a couple lures by the bridge as well. I hear that there are some areas around there that drop to 35 feet, so I can see where I may have snagged. Didnt have my ff either so hard to tell where the structures were. I don't remember the old couple but I do remember passing a cople boats p that were trolling slow haha. I wonder what boat  were in. Thats cool  saw me thogh!

Nice, Steve was passing the old couple. That area by the bridge was about 35 foot. I can't imagine the lures that a diver could find in that area with all the snags. I think my buddy's boat was blue, and it was a little aluminum 2 seater

Just a reminder that the clinic is at 6pm tomorrow

Will have the Brats on the BBQ at around 5-5:30. Don't forget to bring your chair. Can't wait to see you guys! 

Victor & Dan,

Frank and I will see you tonight.

Thanks

You guys are awesome for doing this. I only wish I could make it, sounds like fun.

Can't wait I'll be there I'll be bringing my dad

Major thanks to Adam (Auburn Trout Dude) for knocking it out of the park tonight with the Salmon fishing seminar at Headwaters shop. Over 40 people made it for the talk, and I think we answered a lot of questions. For those who were not able to make it, we will have a blog post breaking down the talk with important links about Regs, kayak rigging, and tackle setups.

Adam is going to upload his power point presentation to the the Headwaters Blog, as well as add some info to the Fishing Tips Section. I will send out an update when we get the blog post done.

Thanks you Adam for the great presentation on salmon fishing, and thank you Dan for putting it on. I learned some new techniques for salmon and got to meet some Nor Cal Kayak anglers in person.
I thoroughly enjoyed it!
