Finally got cleared as a decent enough guy for this forum, I think they lowered their standards.
After a long fall of bobber fishing (Only two fish) and making the bait shop rich I went out with the fly rod Thursday morning. It turned into a 3 species day. Behind the Guide Shop at the top of the hole I hooked and landed a beautiful Silver before any of the drift boats put in. After another 45 minutes of nothing and more drift boat traffic, I hopped over to the Kilchis for some Chum. I hooked at least ten and brought to hand about half of them, the rest were of the long line release variety. To top it off, I hooked and brought to hand a 35 lb. Chinook that put on quite a show. He tailwalked repeatedly and I followed him down river for almost 1/4 mile before getting him in. He was just on the edge of being too dark so back he went.
I'm the guy who usually get's skunked, but every once in awhile I think God throws in a day like today to give me a glimpse of what Heaven might be like.
