wednesday

About 1650cfs when we launched this morning with a light drizzle. Passed 7 boats from the launch to the top of the schoolhouse, let the rods out for the tail of the school no dice, down to the wire and got a good smackdown but didn't stay on. Thru fraziers run and got another smackdown that didn't stay hung 5minutes later this guy stayed on.

Around the bend above the muskrat let them out again and this guy gets his first steelhead and biggest fish of his life and this little piece of chrome did not disappoint put on a display for us then came to net.

Floated to the launch without another strike went 2 for five in 2and a half hours and did it again. Weather got nicer and more boats and people were about now so spots to plug were scarce. Got this last guy down below the root witch owes me a good couple of fish as that hole and the bovines have blanked me so far this year.

I had a great day and it beats work anytime, wont be long and the plug rods will be glowing hot

Fukkin awesome!!! That's about all I have to say. Especially the semi fresh coho... awesome awesome awesome!!!!

Would not miss it for the world Tuna might db2 like to play in the "dreadful wind and rain" with us?

I think maybe Fichy might ;) I got to see if I have any more secret weapons still hiding out from years past.

Sounds like a great day watching the rods throb to the beat of the plugs.

The fine art of rowing them  them exploding plugs (at least that's what seems to happen)  at its finest! Good work , John. Hope to see you this month.
