Buenos Nachos All! This morning the hubby & I went to meet losaturn & between the 2 of us in about an hour snagged & lost 6 setups.... I've started making our own weights & have made a few dozen spoons because I'm a cheap ass and tired of throwing money down river. It was AWESOME to meetup with someone that knew what the hell they were doing & get a few quick tips but the beach filled up pretty quick and two guys decided it was ok to move in on where we were standing while we were re-rigging. Maybe fishing social graces are different than that of some normal human being in public. Like I've said, we're new (lol). After thanking losaturn & getting one last tip for how to rig an egg drift setup & directions to a few other spots to try, we headed off to Dicks for some super fantastical magic fish enticing eggs. After Dicks we checked a few spots along the river only to find that by this time, all of the spots either already had people in them or the water was too low to get to without waders. Then when all hope seemed to have been lost for the morning, we saw a pair of plaid clad grizzly guys walking up from the river and they waved... We guessed that meant they wanted to tell us everything they knew about the sport and possibly catch the suckers for us. So we pulled up and asked them how their luck had been this morning. Super nice guy and said that the egg floater spot was just around the bend behind boeing. After chatting him up a few minutes, we headed out to find the boeing spot. We found it & it was a zoo. Saw multiple people walking up the bank with fishes so we decided to give it a try. There were fish jumping like neither of us had seen before. Literally one right after another. We got a few casts out & noticed that we were the only 2 still standing out on the rock just down from the bridge... So turn out, there is no bell or alarm that sounds when the tide starts to come back in. Yep you guessed it, we were the 2 dips that nearly got stuck on the rock. Thankfully there was only a couple feet of water we had to cross to get back to the shore. One of these days I'll be cool enough to post that we caught something & didn't look like idiot haha! When it does happen, I'm thinking we should have a forum party LOL Good luck out there!
