A few of us were there yesterday too, fish breaking but couldnt get them to go for the everything I threw at them. Crowd definately picked up as sun came up, we were there at 230 had the place to ourselves. A few guys casting from the road as the rocks were very steep where we were, only saw 3 fish taken..thats not a very good report in my mind.

When I was heading out a guy capeside was able to get something into it. Heard the loud bang of something landing in it. The current started to pull it though at that point I couldnt see the sun was blinding me, looked like he may have started to get it in but I had to take off. |

Add a teaser similar to the small bait they are keyed into.

Rainy day and I'm bored... 
Sometimes bikes and pencil poppers by day simply don't work.
Change yer tactics...
Try salmon eggs. |

Has anyone ever seen one of those road casters actually hookup?
They seem to get alot more talking than fishing accomplished.

One morning a couple of weeks ago fish were breaking, but seemed to be better than halfway across. Nobody down on the waterline could reach them. Up rides a guy on a trike, with a name meaning male cow. Winds up from the service road and lands a plug on top of em', and hooks up. Climbs down and lands the fish, and releases it.
Works his way back up to the service road, a short while later another pod comes through. Winds up and repeats the earlier cast. This time he hooks up with a decent fish. Looked to be in the low 20's from where I was.
Pretty impressive casting demonstration. So yes, I have seen a roadcaster hookup before.  |

I am not recommending anyone try it, but it is the easiest way to add 10-15 yards to a cast when necessary. |
No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

I've been curious about this... Whether you get farther from up higher versus out farther.. (top of the bank versus at the waters edge on a ** low) |

I'm with you on this---I think that it actually decreases your cast, unless you're in a spot with a very steep and short bank. |

Sometimes you can get a lot better footing and it will make a difference...
