Title: Pretty Good Day April 5th/07
Post by: Coho Cody on April 05, 2007, 10:01:59 PM
Well Hook Set and I set off for fishing after school. Left at 3.50, got to the flow and realized it was super low and clear, and almost to clear to fish. Fished there for an hour with nothing. Then we headed way way down river. Got there, right away, put on the polarized glasses, HOLY #@$@! A bunch of steelies were sitting 10ft infront of us. So we put our rods together and start casting. Nothing, then hook set snags up and breaks off. While hes tying up, the drennan goes down and fish on! Nice steelie, chrome flahes, bolts down and gone. By this time hook set is mad. Next five casts, BAM. float down, fish on. down the un and gone. It was slow after that, then i decided to fish the tailout, and second cast, BAM, fish on! Hook set just books it down to where im fishing, and after about a 5min. spirited battle, we see its a dolly. An outright massive dolly pushing 8lb.s HOLY @#$@. Hook Set tails it pics it up, and some more words are said ;D. Then it jumped out of his hand and the hooked popped out. Oh well, no camera, but the memory of getting a dolly that big will be in my mind forever. Doubt i'll ever get one so big.

Tight Lines,
CC ;)


PS: Kevin, ill be back around 4, ill call u when i get home from the vedder. We'll hit up this flow around 5 ;)

Sounds good, I'll be there all day going around 11am :) So there may be none left when you get there ;D That was a beauty fish Cody, congrats, biggest dolly I have ever seen. Definitely thought it was a steely when you were bringing it in.

Thanks Rod ;)

Michael, a good fly is a olive sparkle leech in size 10, or a green micro leech in size 10 ;)
