Started the morning fishing the Cowlitz by the Blue Creek launch, but after no luck there we packed up and moved to the Skookumchuck. Started fishing there about 11:30am up at the corner hole. The two friends I was with mainly drifted corkies and yarn in the faster water. I started out floating a jig in the slower sections, then moved to chucking a plug into the tailout, then wound up with corkies also. We were all using the standard orange, pink, black, red, white type combinations. There were a good amount of fish rolling, but they didn't seem to be in much a of a biting mood. After fishing that spot for about 2 hours my friends called it a day and left while I headed down into the fields. I started up high and worked my way down, again using jigs and drifted presentations both. Saw one ~7lb fish jump about four or five times in a row at one spot, but that was it as far as action for me down there. So, no fish, but still got to see new territory along the river. Next time....
