We got to FT. Spokane about 10:00am, It was sunny and 28 degrees. By the time I had the fire ready to start the wife had her first fish on, nice 16" rainbow. After about 20 min. I had a nice fire going and it was time for me to get a line wet. My wife was using marshmallows and worms so I tried a shrimp under a bobber. With in the next hour she landed another 16"er and a 24"er so I got rid of the shrimp and set up a slip sinker with marshmallows and worms. By 1:30 she had landed another 16" and a 14" all nice fat bright fish, and I was still waiting for my first bite. After giving me a good ribbing she put her gear up and started tending to the fire. Finally I got a bite and missed it, and then another and missed it also. About 2:00 I hooked into one, a 12"er, smallest fish of the day. Another hour went by before I got another hook up, a fat 14"er. By this time we were about out of fire wood and I had been skunked so it was time to head for home. I will try to upload pictures but I am trying to figure out this new computer with Windows 8 and I am having a terrible time with it.
