Another breath taking morning; the sky was on fire. It was nice taking a good week off from fishing, and also to take a personal day to try out the new GoPro3 (bought it off some chick at the Navy holiday party for $100!).

Tenth cast out this morning produced a cookie-cutter, 5 lb hatchery buck. I must say, the colder the water gets, the less fight these winter fish have in them; I reckon the acrobatic, summer steelhead spoiled me rotten :)
Thus it was relinquished back to the icy depths. Now, it's your turn.

I decided to scout down river and fish a few different spots, to feel out where a few more winters might be sitting in this low and CLEAR water. Hooked and landed a few Coho, called it a day around 10 AM.
