Looks like things are slowing up by Orfino, but still a few fish there. We are coming up to Salmon area in about 2 weeks ourselves, Hopefully hit the Middle fork to North Fork area, but if no fish we'll keep chasin em up to Pahsim Hatchery.
I never have used the Jig under bobber method you were using, we always use the bottom drift method with a 3 way swivel and bit o tin tube, then about 3 foot leader and a maribou leech and corkie. You may try the old roe or shrimp baits also. GL to ya.
