if your going to targeting chinook, cast out at a downstream angle, jack a large mend into the line to allow the fly to sink, point your rod straight out into the river (90degrees to the bank), what this does is it allows the flyline and fly to come across at a very slow pace, this keeps the fly in the fishes face for a long period of time, ellicting a teritorial strike. Bigger flies like moal leeches, marabou speys, and articulated intruders are better because of size. (water conditions must be up with some colour, all you will be doing is practicing your cast in low and clear coditions)
