South fork Clearwater help - Ilv2fish - 06-03-2014

Ok so I want to try the sf Clearwater for salmon and have no idea about anything and need help. when do the fish make it there? I'm seeing they are catching a few. What's the preferred method there? I have drift fished on upper salmon is it the same? Sorry but I'm clueless and trying to learn in case I go up there. Any help would be great. Thanks

If you have drift fished for salmon before it's exactly the same. Some yarn, hooks, surgical tubing and pencil lead. You will be golden. Put som scent on your yarn.

They are catching fish there now. Yes you could start by looking for the people. Watch out for the bobber guys though. That river is loaded with them.
