Anyone else want to be a little more specific before saturday comes and I get totally skunked?
Cause when you say spinners that just doesent really tell me anything.

If you do a google image search for "steelhead spinners", you'll see just how many flavors there are out there. It's crazy. So...you gotta get out there and test and find what you like and what works! I'm still trying to figure it out myself, and have yet to hook a steelie on a spinner.
That said, what I've learned on OFF so far is this: Brass is (generally) better, and start small, especially in the low summer flows. Start your search by looking at No 3 size Blue Fox's, brass. Get a couple dark colors and a couple bright ones. Then get out there and see what the fish bite!
Hit as much water as you can with them, 'drifting' the spinner - bouncing it off the bottom in riffled water.
Good luck!!

Im thinking of going to Mciver Park clackamas river this weekend is that a decent spot?
Should I use spinners?
What is the ideal setup for a spinner?
Just the spinner on the main line with nothing else?
Any holes you want to PM me about over there?ray:
Just look for riffles, and the headwaters of holes. I don't have many secret holes on the clack, except for a few that are nook holes. I think people tend to focus to much on "secret holes", but in reality what your using and how you use it is far more important than where you are. It's true you won't catch much if your not fishing the proper water, but just cause there's fish in there doesn't mean you'll end up getting one. I've seen steelhead in every single riffle, headwater and run i've fished in the last 2 weeks. The fish are there, all you got to do is concentrate on fishing the right gear properly.
