I would check the state regulations.
You need a new job! Get paid to fish.
Guides can make good money, and deduct lots of great equipment.
You can fish for species that have a bounty on them. In the Columbia & Snake river basin,
Some one earned $61,000 American, just for fishing up to 5 months in 2021.

When I have the time off i'd rather do this!

All there is to say. I worked in construction in the PNW I always stayed dry.
Every fishing guide salt or fresh water in Alaska. Grundens
I broke 3 on a 4 day coho trip in Alaska. Always fish with a partner that has backups.
All total maybe 5. we back up with garage sale equipment we find.
You might be leaving a scent of human by handling the lure.
Some type of Smelly Jelly, Garlic Anise herring they even have Worm scent.
Use it withe bait or lures.
Out here shoe peg corn just kills kokanee. Sometime works on trout.
Pink salad shrimp has caught a few salmon. Some people like to wrap a sardine
onto a quick fish and they do catch salmon.
Worms work in estuaries. I've caught Perch, Cabazon, and Greenling
I find that fishing with a lawyer solves alot of theses questions. Only it is hard to find a lawyer that I want to spend all day with.
I usually fish for the Kokanee. Along the south shore in the really deep seems to be where Mackinaw fishers hang out.
I have used several knots over the years. My favorite is the "Uni knot".
Great for tying on gear and make a "double uni" to splice two lines. I believe this also called the "Duncan knot"
I usually lose the hook or lure before anything needs sharpening
North Fork reservoir out by Estacada.
I have fished both. I agree spinning with a bobber allows to reach out farther in larger lakes and streams.
I learned fly fishing for salmon in Alaska coastal streams. Fly fishing allows you to repeat casts in areas with brush trees and brambles and not hang up ...as much. Spin casting is much more difficult to duplicate a cast over and over, therefore more time tying on new gear and less catching.
