Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about fishing gear & tackle in the Pacific Northwest

Essential PNW gear includes medium-heavy rods (8-10ft for salmon/steelhead), quality reels with smooth drag systems, braided line (30-65lb), fluorocarbon leaders, and species-specific terminal tackle. Local tackle shops can help customize setups for your target species.
Our directory features vetted tackle shops across Oregon and Washington. Look for stores with knowledgeable staff, quality brands, and good return policies. Many shops offer rigging services and local fishing reports.
For salmon, consider 8-10ft medium-heavy rods paired with level-wind reels (trolling) or spinning reels (casting). Popular brands include Shimano, G.Loomis, and Lamiglas. Budget $200-500 for a quality combo that will last years.
Use braided mainline (30-50lb for salmon, 20-30lb for steelhead) with fluorocarbon leaders. Trout fishing may require lighter mono or fluoro. Line choice depends on water clarity, structure, and technique used.
Steelhead tackle includes drift fishing gear (pencil lead, swivels, hooks), float fishing setups (floats, jigs, beads), and spoons or spinners. Essential terminal tackle varies by technique - local shops can recommend proven setups for specific rivers.
