9/14/2011 6:57:00 PMYa, should mention I did kind of an old man walk-run into the spot LOL. :-0 The body's getting old.... was at least nice to see a few rollers even tho the nest have been in. Glad no Walakers were witness to it (uh, I think).

9/14/2011 11:17:00 PMMan, that is dedication!!! I can definitely relate. When I read your report, I felt like it was me. Guilty as charged! My last salmon report was a stint "on the way to work too." lol Can't say anymore for fear of incrimination. I too forget occasionally to factor the time to trek to and from the intended spot. And 7 minutes of fishing is better than 30 minutes at work thinking about fishing.

9/15/2011 10:35:00 AMSometimes that what you have to do. I get off work before the wife so I have the privilege of picking our daughter up from the sitters. if I have 10min to spare I often stop at a lake on the way, and make a few casts. I've caught a nice trout and large mouth doing this. :)
Good luck!
Good luck!

9/15/2011 11:06:00 AMThanks! My wife has recently gotten equally obsessed with fishing. She's a little smarter than me so she makes sure to bring something for me to eat when I start getting cranky. 5 hours of fishing on an empty stomach and not getting a single nibble on my line turns me into whiny four year-old. Point being, those of us who are obsessed with fishing to the point of starving ourselves need to get our wives in on the action. That is of course, if your wife enjoys feeding you. There's always protein shakes!

9/15/2011 2:27:00 PMU guys are feeding my motivation here LOL (just kidding- all decisions made to fish are mine and subsequent consequences too).
I have a right sleepy mind (and full stomach thanx to my wife's delicious pho) to skippy on outta work cuz I am feeling VERY sick and VERY tired....
Wife has relatives at the house for a week too so slept on the floor with little sleep. Work is... Well I won't even start with that...
Hmmmmmm.....
As far as the wife, she can't fish due to her right arm not being able to support much weight at all. A salmon tugging on a fishing rod wouldn't work. Although I was very proud of my daughter catching on over Labor Day weekend :-) Think she's gonna be my fishing partner more and more going forward if I can motivate her (tricky to do when 'Mom' isn't into it, in fact the only fishing daughter has done this year was that weekend). Those few minutes yesterday were the first time back out since the Labor Day weekend trips with daughter and those pinks aren't gertting any brighter. OK back to WORK. :-0 Good luck all on the water out there.

9/15/2011 9:00:00 PMWoohoo, I was inspired today to go to an appointment when at work. So I took off to my appointment just after 4:30 PM from work and returned after 7 PM to finish off the shift LOL. I'm still at work but have a Green River report coming. It was a GOOD appointment and the medicine was GOOD too.
