Angler's Guide to the West Coast - Salmon and Tuna (Complete Angler's Guide To...)

This comprehensive guide covers everything you'll need to know to get into throngs of salmon. Trolling tactics, mooching methods, and jigging approaches are covered from to Z, including terminal tackle, imparted action, what works for each species, and more. Chinook, chum, coho, pink, and sockeye salmon are all fair game, as well as the burgeoning red-hot albacore tuna fishery, and Bob Mottram covers it all, up and down the shore. Mottram also covers boats, motors, and the vast field of fishing electronics, to help get you into the gear you want and need. Recent reports indicate that fish numbers are well above what they've been in the past, and well above expert's forecasts - some of the best numbers since the 1930s. Now is the best time in years to track down and land the salmon of a lifetime.
