well my dad and i were out swinging the big sticks today (spey) and had a couple tugs and one landed (my dad) was his first ever on the spey rod.  ;D it was a hatchery and being the first of the year it was kept.

Flosser  ;D
Good job on the fish..... We were out today as well, missed one hit.
Vis up high was around 3 feet and down low was a meagre 8"-1' when we left at 6:30.

Should be beter tomorrow...
PS You don't need to place the hook in the tip of the nose when you take the pic  ;)
