Spent Tuesday morning at the crossing caught a couple colored wilds, then headed to a river closer to home. Water was low and gin clear. Could see many fish (mostly colored) moving through but no hookups for anyone. Headed back Wednesday and with the overnight rain, water was tea colored and noticeably higher. Chucked roe for about an hour with no touches for me or anyone else for that matter. I then decided to conserve roe by baiting my hook with a hot pink & peach yarn ball followed by a small amount of roe. A couple casts later my float buried and I was into a brute. I thought it was probably a chum but soon found out I was fighting the biggest coho of my life. Beached a hatchery buck at least 15lbs. It was a little colored but a beauty! After a couple photos I was back at it and a few casts later was into a hatchery doe about 7lbs. One of my mutts almost jumped in after her as she thrashed around close to shore. The other guys around me still hadn't touched anything. I gave a guy fishing next to me a yarn ball and wouldn't you know it a couple casts later he lands a chrome buck. Coincidence? Beats me! All in all a great day. Would love to post photo of brute.....still cant figure out how to upload photos from my phone to this site even with the help of members on previous posts. Tight lines all.
