Rogue River - Drifting


The steelhead action at the Rockford Dam is just about to heat up.  For those people who like to fish early before the main run, you have some room to fish using a number of techniques.  One of the ways you can present your offering to the steelhead is to drift.

In short - drifting is allowing your bait to enter the water above the run or hole, a spot in the river where the fish are or you believe them to be, and allowing it do drift through naturally.

This process is then repeated many times as you attempt to make the perfect presentation to the fish... or in many cases when fish are spawning - you invoke some defensive response to protecting their bed.
