Remember those nitwits from Pa that used to park up by the old trail down to the sycamore that were filleting the fish and throwing the guts back into the ragweed.  When we said, "What about the stench, their answer was "we're out of here today, what do we care."" Of course, when they got back the next year, that spot was posted, and they had to find another place to trash.  Everybody is ENTITLED in modern America, which is why we are so well loved in the rest of the world.  And actually handing out all those tickets would be bad for business!  Oh, and there are suckers like us that will clean their crap up every year, down here in RACHACHA we are actually responsible for cleaning it up off the streets in front of our property, but no one ever gets hassled for throwing it there.
 
The big reel is compensation for something else that is infinitely small....

7 on is a good morning 2b. Good job. Between folks walking and driving aimlessly with tunnel vision, making their own parking spots, nonrefundable beer cans littered about and drunk morons in the grocery stores.... Yeah its silly season :)

Did see quite a few in the hatchery but mostly males which is usually pretty typical for early showers. Most of the kings I saw in the hatchery were unclipped also. Quite a few coho. The event they had was pretty nice for the kids. A lot of people showex

DSR reported a small pod this AM-their honesty in reporting in this unusual year is refreshing albeit not what we want to hear, but HONEST
    -congrats to them-
Can recall when SR reports across the board were always GREAT - no matter how it really was.
 Would think that for a  decent picture of the season thus far  go to the DSR reports and read the past week or so.
NO- am not a customer over the past several years or a DSR rep in any way- just really appreciate their candor.

This week my 3 all had the fin also. Going to give it hell again Wednesday through Saturday

They definitely have gotten better at reporting. I think it was wise for them to stop up to the minute reports and report on the day as a whole. Fred to mike to Connie had a good system though. The Daily hotline that seemed so redundant yet with simple words they really let you know what was going on in that simple report

Don't know if I saved the day, but it was fun.
I had one pull at sunrise, that probably was an arse hook. This one and two more. Netted a fish for a guy and he gave me a fly. Tried it out and got a good hit, needless to say I should of changed the leader after the above because it broke, knew it was rough ,but was too lazy.  got my hits after I switched to 6#test (drennan) was at 10# before with little luck.

Look out boyz, DEC is here in FULL force. There was about 20 trucks across from the hatchery today and lots of osiferz milling around, problem is they were still there an hour or so later when I came back through. On the river would be better.
