Eben how could you not pay attention to herring when you fish THE RIVER that screams at you herring. Here's a tip. Chunk your herring. I've outfished more guys that livelined right next to me by chunking. Don't get me wrong catching a keeper with live herring is fun, but I've learned my lesson. To me live herring is a pain in the butt. I know a few guys that liveline on the boat and kill fish, but from shore I like to chunk. Once in a while if I'm fishing a spot and the herring are flopping on the beach I'll live line but otherwise the chunks are more dependable.
