The season has changed and the Columbia river Chinook are all but gone so yesterday I went sturgeon fishing. The dinosaurs were biting light and you just have to leave your pole until they are taking line. I find that in areas of slow current they tend to bite light, in areas like the wall above Roaster Rock on the Washington side, which is a great hole, they tend to hit hard because the bait looks like it is going to wash down river. I put up a video on my you tube channel of the best one, and I was totally not watching my pole. I didn't know I had the fish until he was jumping, thanks to the fact that cameras don't play solitaire we got the video.
I guess I should have known this but there is Crawdads in the Columbia river, for some reason I thought they would be in small bodies of water or mountain lakes. You could totally put a trap in where I was and hit a few Crawdads, I am not suggesting that I would eat the ones from the Columbia but you could catch them there...
Happy fishing and enjoy whatever you do outdoors

Hello people,
I have started a new youtube account. Currently it is just underwater video but I am going to add some beginner how to setup videos real soon. I think that most amateurs like myself are just not sure if they are doing the right thing and when they see the pros catching lots of fish get a little discouraged, DON'T BE, they do it everyday, all day. So I just want to pass on a few things I have learn and show you some cool video that supports some of these things.
I bought 2 new cameras that perform better under water than the Polaroid. These Okuma Water Wolf cameras are smaller and have a more streamline shape which makes the troll perfectly so you can see all the action. The only down side is that you have no setting control, on and off.
My biggest pet peeve is hitting the bottom hard to fish the bottom, I have seen on the video that when you hit the bottom your gear stops performing and you are not fishing. I am not saying that a bump here and there is not ok, but shorten your dropper and don't ground out (lol).
Here is a picture of the cameras and you can see some of the video on my youtube channel, it is the same name as my blog with no spaces, the search will want to add the spaces, or try the link below.
