tuesday afternoon

Didn't get up there till 1, lot was pretty full but knowone fishing the stretch I like. Started working the run from the top with the bright sun right on it, didn't see anything for the first 20 minutes then a hoe went shooting by. All the fish I saw were hoes and one brown most 3/4 of them were going full bore with no interest. 3 of them slammed my fly and then completely schooled me, did not put one on the shore but what a blast. Last was the best slammed it ran at me than back across than up than down with no stopping lost everything except 1 inch of my 20lb but section. Only fished about 3 hours probably saw 30 to 40 fish no kings and very few holding fish.

    Guess I left too early.
     
    Fished below town from sunup till 8:30.
    Had a couple jings sliding around but wanting nothing I was offering.
    I should mention I somehow left my 12# in the car so the 8# floro shouldn't have been a problem.
     
    Went up to the tressle and ate an apple while watching the 8 or 10 guys "fishing".
    One guy tight up between the pillars hooked 3 coho in about 15 minutes.
    His buddy hooked one fish I didn't see.
    Pretty stoked again I took off looking for some midriver water.
    There were to guysfishing the root on my way down so kept going .
    Swung my way down thru the open water no hits no runs It must have been an error in judgement.
    Was nice getting to swing the open water there but that was all.
    Didn;t see anything going by.
    The sun was fully on the water making it clear as air.
    Remembered I was old and tired and started out hoping to get a shot at the root on the way back.
    No luck.
    No one fishing but 3 guys staring glassing it.
    Called it a day and went to Altmar to but some feathers and arctic fox tail.
    Sat and chatted with Bob and Malinda for a couple hours before driving home.
    All in all.
    The fishing was great (no one near me all day).
    The catching sucked.
    The comoany was great.
    Had a wonderfull time.
     
    All I got was this guy and his little brother.
    At least the SR tarpon were willing.
    3fan hope my benz suv wasn't in your parking spot.

    Not really me.
    It was parked about where you said you like to.
     
    2005 chevy equinox for me.
    Wife calls it the pickle wagon because I brought some 5 gallon palls home in it.
    I don't smell anything.

    Well . Jack put a blindfold on me, spun me around about a dozen times and we drove what felt like hrs so I really don't know where it is but he sure catches fish there.

    My secret spot is the UFZ and sometimes puckerbush creek ;)

    Guys all the reports are getting tough to handle. I know it'll be the weekend but I just cant take a day off yet. Any thoughts about fishing Friday afternoon and Saturday? I know there will be more people but fish wise what are your thoughts?
     
    Thanks

    So there were coho in the stairs Tues AM?
    I thought of starting there but new it would draw a crowd pretty early.
    I didn't have anyone within eyesight till 7:30 and they were out of sight in 10 minutes.
    On the downside it seems I missed the coho.
    Twice now that I think about it.
    Dollar short early morning and afternoon.
    Guess it was my turn to be the bee not the windshield.

    got your pm brother and I thank you. My secret spot has been void of people this year so far, in fact only two boats have floated by me there. Cp I have found a lot of action in the afternoons, if there is a lot of sun look for a shaded bank with few or no fisherman below you, if there are people below and there not chucker&ducker type youll be fine, if they are blood thirsty salmon killers move, Ill send you a pm to my favorite spot If you fish to them they will bite.

    2 b, I have Seen cohoes in the port quite a few times at last light and they were usually in ball park after first light. Was kinda just kidding about johns cohoes but most likely they left the estuary in the early am if you know what I mean. Swing don't be confused By my bs report... its peak season and fish will be in decent numbers in most parts... I'd love to see a slight flow increase from some rain... even with this flow, the Haldane to 81 area doesn't allow the fish to get through without being seen. What a slaughterhouse it is down there. Tight lines and have fun this weekend
