DIY Skeena river fishing

[bullwinkle]

Thinking of pulling the river boat to Terrace and exploring the Skeena and surrounding rivers with the family and doing some salmon fishing in July,just wondering if anyone has some advice and starting points.
Thanks

The launches can get pretty busy, there's only 2 that I'm aware of in Terrace and parking can be tight at times. can't give you much advice as I'm a bank maggot, but I've heard back trolling plugs works good.

Only boated once on the Skeena half way between Terrace and Rupert.
Very fast big river in that section. Couldn't go straight up but had to zig zag back and forth across to go up. Some of the smaller rivers would be more enjoyable as far as boating.

Good fishing from shore on the Skeena too.
