    Bead and yarn ball under a bobber?

    I have caught fish on yarn with bead, but the bead wasn't above the hook, right next to it, I m not sure exactly why you should run bead above hook, maybe helps with hook ratio, I were to think fish maybe hooked outside the mouth.

    Newport jetty fishing

    Also make sure you are not casting out really far, the fish are in the rocks, if you cast out too far you will be past the rocks and in the sand. I like to use a rig with a 2 ounce weight on a fish finder rig with #2 or #4 baitholder pretied snells, sandshrimp for bait tied on with magic...

    Anyone else tired of Oregon's prejudice against bait fishing?

    Mortality rate is much higher when using bait.

    Yes you can keep perch, that is a good size one and they are good to eat, deep fried or fish tacos.

    Swivel, leader and line for steelhead fishing

    When I fish spinner I usually fish #12 line, and I don't use swivels on #4 blue fox, it is an aggression strike and no need to go super light to minimize lures lost. Drift fishing and float fishing I would stick to the 8# leader.

    Boat problems

    They have aluminum brazing rods at hardware stores, all you need is a hand held propane torch. I have never done it but seen videos of it done and looks like it is pretty easy.

    Plastic worms

    Hard plastic beads would be legal, soft beads would not.

    Small boat questions

    He could get an boat loader for the top of his truck and wheels on the transom for putting in the water.

    Small boat questions

    I would get a 15' smokercraft Alaskan, those other boats you are looking at are too small. As the kids get bigger you will most likely have to get another boat. I can fish three adults out of mine but that's max.
