Cap Friday morning...
« on: October 23, 2014, 08:07:30 PM »
I don't get the chance to fish the rivers much with work and kid, but I do have the chance to get out for a couple hours first thing tomorrow.  I am an ethical and considerate fisherman.

Questions is...is the Cap going to be too blown to fish?  Are there still biters in the system?

I know I am going to get a lot of 'go out and see for yourself' type responses, but thought I would ask in case there was anyone out today who wants to share some intel....

Alright, thanks for the tip.  Really wanted to feel a fish on the end of the line.  I have a ton in the freezer so don't plan on keeping anything I catch. Might just sleep in and dream about it...

Is it really this bad for fish? I did see the proud ???  catch of a few zombie springs, complete with orange goo.
But, with all of this consistent fresh rain...should there not be a few remaining fresh springs and lots of coho?

I just stocked up on a complete cap river assortment from Highwater...am I wasting my time for the next two weeks? This was my plan.
