Default ifish karma?

ifish karma does it exist?
After lurking around ifish for the past month or so, yesterday I decided that it was time to register and get involved. Well today with a few hours to fish I thought I'd go up to the Kalama. After about 20 minutes of fishing my float went down ! After a short battle I slid a bright 7lb hatchery buck on the beach. Great first hatchery fish of the year. About another 20 minutes pass float goes down again another buck about 8lbs. I'm thinking karma? NO. I fished about another till my cold feet and empty stomach are telling me to head back to the car. Might as well fish back up . I'm almost to the top the float goes down again . Finally this fish is on the bank. Wait this is no ordinary hatchery steelhead. It has a black mouth! Spring Chinook!

Again the question KARMA???? I think so.

Thank you ifish and all of you

i've been reading the board for a while now. finally signed up and started adding my .02. i've donated .14 and still haven't caught a fish. where's my karma? where are my fish? i've been out at least once, most times twice, each weekend and my tag still has 'stink' on it. where's the justice?

I've been reading for a while too, and I still have that stinky tag in my wallet (keep getting looks at work!?). But its probably my fault, I don't read the fishing posts. I just like to read the digs that Os and hey_yall trade!
