This is a post about how I use the Big Chief smoker.

I am no expert, nor do I claim to be. What this post is intended to show is that
basic fish smoking is easy. It's inexpensive and results in a tasty treat that can be great
for parties, gifts, scarfing at home and, most importantly, making your wife think it's
okay for you to go fishing! (truth is, they get sick of it after awhile)

I've been smoking fish for 22 years and have stuck with this basic method since it produces a basic, ...

These are simply shrimp that are sold as food at a regular grocery store and many people refer to them as prawns.

Now, this bait is not to be confused with the ...

Hey, all!

The following is a cheap way to make your own jig heads. I do recommend buying your jigs from TTJN and Steelhead Stalkers. It is not expensive and they catch fish and most don't have time to make their own. However, some of us do like to make our own stuff when we have a little free time and it's fun to catch a fish on something you created! I find I like to relax after the family goes to bed ...

In response to Matt's call out for tutorials I thought i would share the basics of my favorite fishery. Trolling for Spring Chinook is probably my strongest season however I admit I am by no means an expert, so I thought I would put together the gear, bait, and tactics necessary to get any rookie started. This tutorial is geared toward the lower Columbia and willamette fisheries but will touch on some key differences in each.
