Well decided to try the lower sky today, to see if anything was showing up yet. Got to my favorite spot around 8:00 am and after about 45 min got a hard hit, but wasn’t able to set the hook. From then on it was nothing for the rest of the day. Fished until about 1:30, and after throwing the whole tackle box at them, and fishing different spots along the river, decided to call it a day. Only saw a few fish jump the whole time I was there. The river is still pretty high, so the water is moving faster then I like, and could go down about another 2-3 feet. Will be back up there on opening day for pinks, so hope they start to pour in soon.

Indeed it is, nothing wrong with a little honest scouting whilst fishing for Summer run metal. Thanks for the report.
