I have never floated the skagit before so after doing some research i decided to float from Marblemount to Rockport.

We mostly pulled plugs threw a few slots, a "mcrib" tadpolly and a blue brads wiggler. starting right below the cascade. my buddy barely got the first pole "mcrib" out and it doubled over and started screaming off line. Probably a 6# summer run buck, little to dark for our taste so after a quick battle he went back. Fished a few more slots down to swift creek. we fished there for about an hr. throwing jigs under floats, green and purple. got a few chum, including a MONSTER buck! Not knowing how long it was gonna take to float we left that hole and switched to eggs under a float targeting dollys. C&r'ed a dozen or so on our way down the river.

Wasnt a super fishy trip but we floated past alot of water. and seen 14, yes 14 bald eagle all in one spot. was the most awesome thing i had ever seen fishing. we pulled out at rockport by 1pm. I think friday we are gonna float it again and hit it a little bit harder, super eassy float.
