Title: Kamloops pre-dawn fun
Post by: SkagitDreamer on August 03, 2014, 07:55:35 AM

Never targeted coarse fish before but what a blast on the dry & right in town! My dog loved the non-stop action :)

Yes, I have my dog and I saw 3 others walking theirs. Great place to break my bad casting habits :) do say hi if you see me

We may try across the river tomorrow... Below the confluence. Always see a lot of feeding on that beach.

That can be a really good spot. I usually launch where you were and go up river. Some beautiful fish right close to downtown.

Yes, there's a few spots I'll try upriver - one before lafarge the other after Pritchard - but maybe with lures. These were sure fun, tho.
