cheapest way is gonna be drifting corkies. get a bunch of them (6 for a dollar at bi mart). couple feet of surgical tubing, some lead, yarn and some hooks.
a lot cheaper than $4 spinners.
Steelhead are said to be a fish of a thousand casts. You should probably pick a method and learn it well before you try and become a master of them all. I personally prefer float fishing and can cover most water with my float and jig/bait. I have buddies who are experienced drift fisherman and usually wouldn't even consider float fishing. I am biased but stick with your jigs and bait under a float and you will catch fish...eventually
a dime size pice sould work with a pink corkeyhey guys and gals, im kinda stumped. i recently found out i will not have enough money to cover are the techniques i was planning on for steelhead on nestucca and 3 rivers. i know ill be floar fishing with jigs and pink worms and possibly bait. but which other technique should i pick spinners or drift fishing? idk which woild be better for thr recent water conditions and veerything..im realy overwhelmed i think thats how you spell it? LOL.
thanks for any input peeps all the best,

I'd stay away from spinners till early-mid 2011. And fish bait under a float for the rest of the year/season. Coon Shrimp, Night Crawlers, Sandshrimp, Eggs, even ol' Tuna balls...from now till May for me. Maybe or maybe not in that particular order....Just me though.
Unless of course were plunkin'. Then it's a whole different story.
not too much of a secret...its in about 60 books about steelhead fishing..
