Had fun fishing with some board members and their families last week.
Thursday we fished with Stew, had no problem hooking fish, the problem was getting them to the net :shrug:
Friday went much better, DesertDog's wife Veldene and #2 daughter Tavia did a great job.
Keith they hooked all their own fish(sidedrifting) and needed no handoffs
Saturday we fished with Kelly Lomax and her son from So.Cal. and they went 3-5 on their first ever steelhead trip :cheers:
Sunday it was the guy's turn. Had the pleasure to fish with former WSU Cougar Linebacker('81 Holiday Bowl) Sonny Elkinton, his dad George and buddy Mike.
We covered some water on our first drift (BC to just above Oleaque Creek...like 18 miles..... George lives 1 mile below the new I-5 launch and wanted to see this stretch of river)....we hit 1 fish below the Toledo bridge, then ran back up to BC...ate a BBQ lunch and then went 2-4 in the next hour and a half.....was cool swapping COUG stories with Sonny, look forward to doing it again :cheers:
