Salmon
On
Spoons
And
Why!
By
Captain
Jim
Hirt
With
a
few
pointers
and
the
reason
behind
them
you
may
find
spoons
as
a
great
addition
to
your
salmon
fishing
arsenal.
Over
twenty-five
years
in
the
pursuit
of
salmon
has
brought
me
to
the
conclusion
that
no
single
approach
is
the answer
to
salmon
success.

Success....

Salmon
like
days
that
have
a
low-light
because
of
cloud
cover.
On
days
that
are
sunny
and
bright
you'll
most
likely
find
salmon
congregating
away
from
the
brightness
in
deep
holes.
On
cloudy
days
the
salmon
will
typically
be
more
accessible.
Water

in

Let

explain
how
to
be
more
productive
by
following
some
basic
rules
and
using
basic
tools.
Activity
and
habits
of

variables.
A
rather
basic

will
put
you
on
