  It was like a mini fish in.  Hope to see you guys on the flow again.
Wish I was there Doug.  Leave FFM at home next time and pick me up instead.  I'll show you my secret "Lake" hole.

Yep I thought about that.  More fish for you and I if FFM is not there.

It's pouring here now. River was still ok in the lower at first light but starting to colour up. Fished for 15 minutes and netted a nice fish for someone before got summoned back home to take the kid to school because it's raining too much to walk. ::)

How old is your kid? To the best of my knowledge, kids don't melt in the rain....My mom would of laughed and kicked my butt out the door if I asked for a ride to school because of rain.....how times have changed....

Lots of fresh fish in the river today.
Chum, Springs, hatchery and wild coho.
The rain really helped, clarity wasn’t great though.
Good luck everyone!

You are really good. I fished vedder crossing, nothing. Fished loooooog way upper river, nothing either.
Fished canal later afternoon, caught one wild coho and a hatchery jack coho. I did not see many fish today. All the fish must go to the hatchery already.

Yep.. Bobby B got the last 5 coho of the year. The rest have made it up to the hatchery already. Pack Er up boys... Seasons over. Was fun while she lasted.
