Headed out again this morning, river in perfect condition. Had come down a bit from yesterday. Decided to start with roe sacks in the first section. Nothing doing again there this morning. Headed up river and thru a pink worm on, about 8 or so casts later, get hit like a freight train and a spirited fight is on!! After a good tussle this nice bullet doe comes to hand and being that I have to be in Vancouver around noon today I decided that my day would be done again just like that. Brought better camera today as well, so got a couple better pics of the doe bullet..lol

definitely nothing to complain about...at this rate you'll reach your limit before the end of the month...seems you've got the touch. ;)
i'm 0 for 2 and hopefully i can get out more soon!
-
Didn't have to long to fish today anyways, if I had this one would have probably gone back. Lol... ;)
-
Saw a fisherman a couple hundred feet below me land a fish on a bright red worm and take pictures. I wonder if that was you.
It was nice cool morning, made all the better by releasing my first steelhead of the year. Was a 10 lb. hatchery buck caught on a spinner.
-
Jealous... very nice fish. Two for two, impressive. I was out all day ... nada, but it what a beautiful day to be out.

i hear ya... last year i caught one on my 2nd cast...hatchery buck of about 6lbs. i let it go because i drove in from Richmond and i wanted to keep fishing... didn't even get a sniff after that and went home after fishing for about 10hrs and 10kms of walking...great day over all, but bittersweet because i was exhausted and let down.

Awesome thanks Geff. You going to still be out here at 5 pm tho? I get off at like 4:45 but could probably sneak out to meet you if need be. I work in rosedale.

Well if we can not meet I can always drop them off at your house and work something out with $$ at some other point. I got you 4 but if you do not want that many just let me know. I dont mind having a few extras. Joe has stopped making them and I doubt you will ever find anyone that can make them as nice and as durable, so once all the floats that he has(about 150 left)are gone then you can only find them like Chris finds floats. ;D
-
what are these floats you guys are talking about? you're making them sound so appealing i'm interested in seeing what they look like ;D

Here is the link from craigslist that Whonnock Joe had put up and it has his phone number in it. If there is an issue with picking them up let me know and we can see if I can work something out.
