Salmon fishing setups for large rivers

What are some of your favorite fishing methods

I fish out of my 10ft Nucanoe and if your going to be in the fraser you might want to stick to the calmer waters and defenitely practice good safety out there. I carry a waterproof case on my Iphone in case of emergency and I would not even consider taking off the life jacket.

my plan is to anchor using my 3lb home made jobby and cast for coho with spoons and if I can find the fish I will switch to fly's.
