I've been lazy this year & after reading most of the posting, I'd rather have my sleep.
That is until my wife's cousin came in from out of towm. All he wanted to do was fish, doesn't matter where, when, what size & what type of fish.
Since he's suffering from jetlag & I've been itching to go to the Cap, we got there early Sunday. I showed him how & what to do for a while. He was on spinner & me on roe. After 2 hours of no success, we switched.
My 1st cast with the home made spinner & Wham! A Big One. The biggest I've caught in years at this time of year. About 6lb. Not bad, since I've been into a truck load of 2-4lb in years past. Usually, they're done in 2 min. This beauty fought for 15min & still had energy when I netted it. That was the only bite we had in 3 hours.
But Damn. That made our day. 1st trip for both of us. I just hope he doesn't expect this everytime.
I'm waiting now for the water to drop so I can show him how to fly fishing for Coho. Now, that's fun.
