Time on the river is the key with the kings. I averaged 10 hours per fish caught. I personally like to find a hole and stay there if I know that it is holding fish. A lot of guys jump around and go from hole to hole when the bite dies off. Each to there own but I think it is more effective if you figure out the drift of a hole and stay put. The bite is usually from about sun up to 10 a.m. We did have a couple days where it turned on for a bit in the early afternoon.
Roe with yarn or tuna balls with yarn seemed to work. It didn't seem to matter what colors. It just depended on if the fish were opening there mouths and if you could get it in front of their nose.
You can learn a lot from the guys on the river. Sometimes it is worth more to just sit back and watch and strike up a conversation with a person on the hole than it is to start fishing. If you show some etiquette and a little courtesy to the guys on a hole, you will have a great experience.
