Decided to hit the Vedder today, slept in a bit and didn't get to the river until after 8 !! weren't many people around considering it was a Sunday , fished a few spots upper and mid, ended up hooking into a beautiful doe with some big shoulders, she took me into the rapids a few times and took me a ways downstream but I managed to get her in for a quick photoshoot before returning to to continue her upstream journey.. here are a couple of pics..

well it was a alright day on the river today. fished the lower river for about an hour with not many anglers in sight
after that hour there was a bit more, 5 minuets after an angler showed up i see his rod bent and a fish splashing,
a little while after that i see another angler with a fish on his line.. so at this point I'm thinking ok wheres my fish..
so i work some more water and BOOM the float goes down, i set the hook and the rod is bent, my heart is racing as i reel in
i find that nothing is happening and its not fighting but I'm bringing it closer then i see what I've caught a nice big tree branch..
so that was my day of fishing, still waiting for my first steelhead 0-7 trips

Nice fish ..see you next week!

Beauty fish Rick! Sure makes me want to get out there and catch my first of the year. Really looking forward to next weekends Derby
and I hope we get the best turn out ever. See U then. Thanks for this pics.
-
funny thing is to crop the photo only to see a youtube video on the fish being caught on another thread. Unfortunately really won't keep the spot all that secret.

question here though--- WHY post a picture if your going to blank out the background?? it makes the pic look kinda crappy i think. If your going to post pictures of fish then perhaps take a quick pic towards the water if your scared someone might see your "spot" or suffer the wrath of posting a pic on the internet or just dont post the picture ::) My 2 cents. well maybe 3 ;) LOL
NICE Hardy reel ya got there Lumps ;D

hook, I did it just so you would have something to complain about, I thought I would post a report just so I could see how many off topic responses I could get
;)

You should have used your feet to hold the fish like what Marco did if you wanted to generate responses. ;)
Nice catches everyone. I sat on my couch and watched "Family Guy" all afternoon.

Nice chromer Rick :P . Way to go Lumps , have to put that one on your time card .

-

What a beast and a beauty. I guess 'beauty & the beast' is the best desc for that fish. I guess it is the largest fish posted here this season. Landing it solo in a rapids sure took great skill only a seasoned rod can do. Congrats Rick.

Good pic for a blackberry, what model?
It's an I phone , takes decent pics
-
I need a hatchery fish!
-all fish so far, that i've landed, and seen/lost have been wild. U guys using some sort of different bait or is mine just a wild fish attractor? lol ::)

Beautiful doe, Chris would wish he was there to tube that gal.
She's going to give birth to big babies to catch for the future to come :D
