Slept in this morning and didn't get down to the river to meet up with my brother until 9am. Perfecting timing since the outgoing flow was just strong enough to drift. Saw only a handful of fish roll while we were there. It was slow the first hour or so, didn't even garner any attention from the numerous sculpin. Just after 10am the bite seemed to turn on. We would get bites every few casts, but had a hard time hooking or landing them. We did manage to land a couple before it went dead. Tried different scents and cures as well as downsizing our hooks and bait. Seemed to make a difference, they started biting again and we didn't lose anymore fish. Got my limit of adult silvers and my brother finished with 2 adults and a jack. The hens we caught had very mature eggs and paper thin bellies. That's a telltale sign that the run is almost over.
