Title: October 16th, first coho of the season!
Post by: Gooey on October 16, 2006, 09:10:35 PM: Gibbs Kitimat Spoon: $4.50
Blue Fox Spinner: $5.00
Crocodile Spoon: $4.00
Mepps Algai: $5.00

Slogging a pool with over $20.00 in name brand lures only to catching my first coho of the season on the first cast with a home made spinner made of a .15c french blade and 4 green beads...priceless!

A week ago we had a thread going on fishing hardware and I explained that my "little" tackle box had a tone of different lures in different colours...this trip reminded me of that thread and I just found it too ironic that we spend so much on gear and its the cheap stuff that often works ;)

Big T, with the way the water has been this year, I havent felt like going out much - actually at all!!! With 2 young kids and the energy it takes to catch up from an early morning fishing trip I figured the conditions havent warranted a trip. I have also kept busy building up 4 new rods.

Ya Chris, it was a drop of the hat type trip and we had dinner guest last night so I didnt get to call ya witht hte report...we'll talk today I'm sure.

No pics .... forgot the cammera.
