If you're reading this blog then you may remember Justin, he fished with us last week on March 15 he brought his Brother and Father. Well Justin returned again this week with his Father in law and brother in law.
When we got to the river it was evident that the word was out that there was some steelhead to be caught as there was I line to launch at nearly every launch. We decided to go high and slide the boat in over some rip rap hoping to have some water all to ourselves even if it were to be short lived and short lived it was. After an hour we tucked into a tail out that had not been fished yet and after pounding it with pink worms to no avail Justin grabbed a rod rigged with a 10mm bead and his first cast the bobber slid below the surface, Justin came back on it and fish on....fish off...the leader snapped! We re rigged and next cast fish on again. Justin handed the rod to his brother in law who fought his first steelhead up to the side of the boat it was wild and was released.
We fished that tail out another for one more bobber down that was missed. We spent the rest of the day fishing behind other boats and while some would have a great day it was the end of our hookups.
