Catching salmon, oops I meant Thursday is open

The rain last week really pumped up the fishing, it tapered off all week but just the little sprinkle on Friday got them going again.

I have Thursday open, there are more than enough bright coho around to make for an interesting day, especially mid week. I could probably work in some bargain accommodations as a incentive.

Rain brings salmon, Thanks Chris and Kim

Had less luck this week bringing them up to the dry, so I am reworking some patterns….we will see……..

You could still catch a summer run if you wanted

Small is beautiful,

as the water gets low you have to size down more and more.  Small dark patterns were getting all the fish, kings included, by the end of the week.

    Jim,
    What do the fish do during a big rain event like we are having today? Do they continue to move, or just kind of hunker down and wait it out? Maybe all the mud confused them?
    Just thinking about this since I am not fishing!

      Move, fast. If the water gets giant and brown they will hold up near tribs and in back eddy and soft inside corners
