Nice to be able to still get a jack or two.  I took my dad out today and we were able to get 3 hatch jacks.  Lost three and also caught a nice wild rainbow.  Lots of time in between the bites, definately slowing down.  Another week or two, you never know.

Landed 3 dollies on the North Arm today.   Zero coho for me but the dollies seemed to really like the roe skein.  I was using a bar rig and all 3 fish were caught on the top hook with just a wad of skein on it.

that's interesting fishbuster. all my fish, ever, have always been on the bottom rig.  infact I recently cut my top rig off so it would cause less tangles.  I always thought the fish preferred to pick the bait off the bottom, but who's to say...good job on the jacks!
