Yea its a hard place to learn, but the fish have gotta be there all the way up. I bet the closer to the april 15th closing you get the better the fishin will get, more stacked you kno
Yea, I'm pretty sure that they were floating gear right above the fishes heads. There are fewer boulders further up, so apparently harder to spot hidey holes. I'm sure that it will only get better as it comes to the close and I'm gonna make it one more time at least.

Small chrome hen from the Skookumchuck. It's great to visit my hometown. Caught on a giant yarn ball and sand shrimp stink, as you can see from in the picture hooked right in the nose. Proof that drift fishing isn't snagging. Whoops, don't want to start anything.... :-"

There are some achievements which are never done in the presence of those who hear of them. Catching salmon is one, and working all night is another.

Nice video! [thumbup] Seems like you're catching a lot more wild fish. What's your ratio between C&R and keeping?
