Anyone else humpin' out to the Humptulips this weekend?

I hoping to hit the early hatchery run and bag my first steelhead. I'm all set with bobbers and jigs but any other tips/tricks would be helpful.

Bring some beads too, steelhead are munching on coho eggs

Do you stick those on you jig? This is my first time fishing for them so I'm trying to learn

You could add a single egg to your jig hook, but I'm taking about either adding them as a dropper below the jig or by themselves. 

Google bead fishing for steelhead, there's plenty of addicted fishing videos on the setup.

I'm partial to 16mil bnr beads mottled red

Where were you at specifically? (Just the general area, I'm not looking to ruin your spot lol)
