Ditto here, Me T.O. Merc and P.B.'s Rick started mid, saw jetboatjim and his buddy, fished an hour or so in snow and wind..(around first light)...Moved up higher, fished pocket water with lots of lost gear...
Had to get something to eat so headed down, after that was taken care of came in around brown rd. ran into Milo and Tadpol
beautiful ridge back dog tad. I think he said he had one on but lost it...saw only one taken on the lower...we walked and fished all the way down to the train bridge with no love...Then headed back up, hit the mid and no sooner then the gear goes out the wind and rain started
hard seriously sucked large...Ended upper river and nothing there either...
I will say this, I'm amazed at how many guys will tell you how they are into fish all day...and then we watched this one guy who told us what a great fisherman he is....he breaks off on a snag that Rick lost gear on twice...I came up and hooked into twice as well...
I tried to pretend it was a fish but Rick and Merc just sat frozen on the beach shaking their heads at me....This guy is in my pocket even though the whole run is open....He fishes the same spot and hits the snag...were watching him and laughing cause I told him it was there...He starts just yanking on his rod and finally busts his leader, His partner comes up and the guy tells him.."I just rolled one right there. It was a small one though but still broke my leader" Makes you wonder what guys THINK are fish...So from now on, every snag I hang up is going to be a rolled fish...So I had around 10 today..
Damn it was brutal with that wind...I'm still cold!!!
