Bad accident

A big bunch of summer steelhead pushed up the lower Columbia this week and all the lower tribs got the benefit.

Fished yesterday in southwest, hooked 5 chromers, will have some pics soon.

Train wreck

It was a change up day, each fish took a little dialing in, nothing crazy, just common sense fly and leader changes.  Won’t bite a dark fly? Try a bright one, won’t bite a little one, try a big one.  Saw a summer king yesterday, and a ludicrously large chrome summer run (17 pounds).  I will be fishing tomorrow and then away for the weekend, I have dates open early next week.  Its low water fishing but if you embrace it for what it is, get sneaky and test your skills you can very possibly hook four to six super hot steelhead from 7 to 15 pounds…That’s not bad fishing.
