Met Tommy and Casey from WL.com and had a great time. Learned some new stuff about how corkie size affects the drift and salmon identification.
I would like to thank both of them for fishing together. This was exactly the reason why I joined WL.com...to experience good times out on the water w/ like minded (new) friends!
