On the other board,there is a link to a website called salmon university. It seems to come up alot over there,but I've never checked it out. I wish I new how to get the link to your post. Sorry. frown

My advice would be to pick a teqnique and master it before you try another. Jigging,trolling,and mooching will all catch salmon. I'm a die-hard moocher,and have gotten very good at it,but it took alot of time on the water to figure it out.

If your new to salmon fishing,I'd try trolling. You can cover lots of water if you don't know where to fish,and after your set up you can kick back and wait for a bite. There's less dogfish to mess with also.

Salmon fishing can be tough for a begining fisherman,but if you stick with it you'll love it. cool

HBP is right it is a little tough at first took me a full season to learn but once I diod it was fun.

I have not done a lot with blackmouth but have caught lots of silvers and it has been a blast.

Are you going to fishing from a boat or shore?

Welcome to the board!

I fish Redondo all the time since it is in my back yard.

Here is what works for me:

1. Start with a green or glow 11" Hot Spot dodger. Behind that put a either a white/glow hoochie or a 4.0 Coyote spoon in either solid silver, green/silver, or blue/silver.

2. Doesn't hurt to throw a little herring stink on your offering either.

3. I like the spoon or the hoochie real close to the dodger, 24 inches. Common thinking is at least 30 - 60 inches off the dodger. If you keep your lead short the dodger really whips the crap out of the hoochie or spoon and that drives the salmon nuts.

4. If you want Coho fish for them right on the surface. If you want Kings drop your offering down to 50-70 feet in about 100-120 feet of water.

The nice thing about Redondo is you can start fishing as soon as you leave the launch, you don't have to run to get into prime waters. Just look for the other boats and troll in their direction.

Hope this helps!
