Thinking I knew more than the locals I stubbornly fished near the bottom and caught very little. I began taking fish, Now my favorite depth at Langara is fifteen pulls. The standard Langara chinook rig is a ten foot rod, a single action reel, a three to six ounce sinker and a ten foot leader. Cut plug herring are the universal bait of choice. Trolling speed is usually dead slow.
Many guides kick the motor out of gear every thirty seconds to let the bait flutter down deep.
Strikes often come when the boat begins moving forward again. Don't be afraid to expiration with what works best in your part of the world. A few year back no one was catching fish until a Lure Jensen tackle representative tried using Diamond d King spoons fished deep. He limited in nothing flat as did everyone else who could get their hands on the spoons . What To Bring All Langara lodges provide top notch rain gear and boots, don't waste valuable space bringing your own.
