Third time is the charm. Hit up the Snohomish to continue working on my Maribou twitching technique and I can say for certain that the pieces have started falling into place. After tying up some new prototype jigs the night before, I was able to go 12/12 yesterday afternoon/evening with only one fish (number 13) not being hooked in the mouth. All fish kept under water and released just about as soon as I could get them under control. 1/4 oz pink and white. All of my successful twitching so far has been slow and methodical, with very light rod tip swing (again compared to fishing something like a buzz bomb) and making sure that the jig is on the bottom.

Respect the fish, respect the water, and respect your fellow anglers. Tight Lines!

So are you basically hopping the jig along the bottom?

John, that is exactly what I am doing. Keeping the jig on the bottom, in my experience, is crucial.

Are you fishing from a boat, or from shore?

Hey Tenor, I have been on the shore for all of my Snohomish trips.
