nicomen slough nov.7/07
« on: November 07, 2007, 03:05:40 PM »
 Fished the slough from shore this morning using a gold crocodile. Released one wild coho and kept one hatchery fish around 6lb. Also had a couple of brief hook ups.  Early in this year's coho season I hooked into some nice size fish but the last four trips out everything  I've hooked and seen  are in the 4 to 6 lb. range, nothing of any size.  Its been a good season, I've had four months off on strike but sounds like I might be back to work next week. Oh well bills to pay.

I have noticed that the coho in the stave are now smaller then a few weeks ago.

Fished the slough at high tide yesterday.  I through just about every spoon and/or spinner I had, and nothing to show for it in 3 hours.  I wasn't the only one though; there were about a dozen or so other people coming and going while I was there and I didn't see one fish caught.  I did see a couple of chromers jump, and one old boot swim right close to shore but that was it.  Is it too early for the Nicomen slough, or have I missed most of the good fishing for this year?  I remember a few years back there were fish jumping everywhere and everyone was catching them.
