Have not posted here much but hope to do more.
Been fishing mostly on the Cowlitz from a jet boat until published reports flooded the river with evryone between Portland and Seattle wow :shocked: Did manage two summers below Blue Creek before the onslaught began.
Interesting day. It had been a while since I hiked in at the mouth so I went for a walk...... a long walk maybe 3 1/2 miles up only to skip it and walk back down below Rattlesnake to start fishing (spey).
So after the sun got off I promptly fell in while wading...bottom droped out no big deal felt kind of good actually.
Took my dog (spriner) and had a lot of snakes reported so I was a little nervous about keeping her close. Got to a nice piece of shoulder water and first cast while drifting I was looking over my shoulder and calling my dog and you know what happened next tug tug...turned around just in time to see mister/misses steelie wave goodbye. :wave:
Used a red spey fly greese line.
Nothing after that but it was fun and there are apparently fish in the system.
There ya go.
