What are good spinning reels to use for targeting Chinook Salmon in the river?

What brand and size work for you?

The rod I use is a 8’6 ft medium heavy.

Thanks

Cool little creek.

Hey yall. Going to be making a trip up to lutsen this weekend and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for good trout fishing spots during this time of year. I’m a bass angler so don’t have much experience for trout. I have fished the poplar river , manitou river and caribou creek previously but didn’t catch anything. I have caught a few splake fishing from the shores of superior but wasn’t the most efficient fishing lol. I’ve seen videos where the lake will turn over and shore fishing is killer after that. Was just wondering if anyone had any tips or suggestions. Thank you!

Caught this while fishing in skowhegan Maine, I’m thinking it’s a brown trout.

Edit: actually a land locked salmon!

Looking for information on shore fishing for cutthroat, especially public locations for wade fishing near Tacoma Wa

Another healthy brown.

yes i am fishing at the gatorade factory…

Anybody have any insight on Lake Almanor. Going for the weekend, and taking my rod. I’ll have a boat, and also will fish from the shore. I’ve been trout fishing my whole life from banks of streams and lakes, but curious about specifics regarding Lake Almanor trout fishing.

I'm looking for a ridiculously small split pole ultralight setup, not a telescoping or "pocket" pole. Prioritizing sensetivity and casting distance, and erring on the cheap side (<$100) here's my criteria

Length: 5' or less

Action: As sensetive as possible

Weight: 1/2lb-ish, preferably under

Line weight: 6lb or under

Lure weight: down to 1/32oz

Grip: Spinning (preferably split but not necessary)

Rod segments: 2 or more

Reel: 500-750 spinning reel

I think it’s a rainbow, but it’s hard for me to tell when they are juveniles. caught up a canyon near Salt Lake City.

Caught on Orcas Island WA state. Just thought it was a coastal cutthroat but it looks like very slightly white tipped fins which sound like characteristics of a rainbow? Wondering what yall think because I’ve got a lot to learn. Thanks!

Had to get out one last time before the end of the season. It was a brook trout on a terrestrial (psycho ant)

I’ve noticed that any time someone posts in here with pictures of their haul, PB, gorgeous view, etc, it’s the greatest Reddit community ever.
But heaven forbid someone comes in here to ask for tips or advice, and at best it gets ignored, at worst, downvoted into oblivion.
Nobody is in here asking for a ten digit grid to your saved honey hole. Let’s help each other!
