This week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast your host Downrigger Dale talks to the owners of two different Montana fishing tackle manufacturers, Gary Rueb of Blackjaw Flies and Dr Don Sawdey of 406 Tackle Company and boy did they give some awesome information! If there was ever a time to go after those huge King Salmon in Fort Peck Reservoir now is the time to do it. According to the reports we have been hearing on the Montana Outdoor Radio Show and MontanaOutdoor.com the big ones are biting. Of course, the big Kings are unpredictable and elusive so if you want to improve your odds of catching one of those beauties this Podcast is a perfect one to listen to! When you do you will learn a great deal about what are the best things to use to catch them like which flashers, lures and flies to use and how to use them. Yeah, as Downrigger Dale’s Grandpa use to tell him, “Listen and learn”!  Yes, this podcast really will help you learn more about how to fish for these exciting Chinook Salmon that inhabit Fort Peck. There are so many variables that can come into play that can help or hurt your chances of hauling in a 25+ pounder. Things like colors to use, size of flies, length leader, how far off of your downrigger ball should your flasher be, and the list goes on and on and the good news is when you listen to this Podcast you will learn about those things and a whole lot more!
