Capilano River, July 5th 2008
« on: July 06, 2008, 04:17:58 PM »
Fished the cap for a couple of hours yesterday, my buddy managed to land a 10 pounder!!!!!!!! on a old rusty home made spinner from a beer bottle cap. It was supposed to be a joke because fishing was soooooo slow......damn.... but first cast WHAM!!!!!!!!!FISH ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY SMOKES!!! that thing cleared right out of the water 4-5 times before he landed it. Sadly, my buddy was too over joyed that he decided to go for a nice dunk in the frigid waters, hence the reason for me holding the fish ( he was a bit too wet to be in the pic)  ;) ;) ;)  ;D

Nice fish and good story!

That explains why there were 6 guys in there when I strolled by this afternoon... One fish is caught and the place is a zoo  ;D

Once again, trip number 5, skunked! Lots of sketchy hiking today.

Cheers,
Nicole

Musta been some whisky or a whole lotta mixer in that bottle where the spinner was made from cuz that fish is like 4 lbs! Sure musta been potent....even the fish got drunk to bite the spinner.
