Well last summer in July my dad announced he wanted to squawfish. The reason was because you can get paid. He even went through the trouble of buying a book which is very informational.
The 2 rivers were the Columbia or the Snake. First my brother, dad and I loaded up the camping gear and drove 4 hours to the Columbia. We tried to fish the spot that produced a lot of fish only we lost an anchor and gave up.
So after the Columbia we fished the Snake and did fairly bad until some cat fisherman said " We released like 4 squawfish up by the dam." Well we put the rest of the gas into 1 tank and drove up there and caught 4 and had to turn back to camp. We had to wait 1 hour before we could go out again since we were all out of gas. After that we became the top anglers for that station and the little tackle shop ended up making a lot of money off the lures they sold.
After telling everyone our best lure we almost lost our spot. But we ended up catching more squawfish than others. We just didn't catch squawfish we caught King Salmon, Coho Salmon, Small-mouth Bass, and some big Walleye. I will post a picture of the biggest soon.
Well if you want more info. on making money fishing go to: pikeminnow.org and so long.
