Anyone got tips for chinooks in the vedder?
More than likely you will find them in the faster current areas of the run, although I have hooked them floating a spoon in a walking speed run. Either run small wool ties, beads or use lures, roe works too but fish are much more lock jawed in a lot of spots until there is more rain and water rises. That's what I have noticed

yeah I tried fishing the deeper runs, but had no luck.
Do you normally find them along in the lower section or are they found throughout the river?

definitely throughout. The more upriver the more green they are, although still taste fine. As time goes on more will be upriver for sure which you probably already know. Last year even in mid October people were catching chinook and even some silver ones.

Do you guys prefer float fishing for chinooks or lure casting?

Sorry everyone, I haven't had a chance to start this season's thread until now. I'm going to close this one and continue all posts at:
