The Wack. Wed. / 13 th
« on: April 13, 2005, 09:42:30 PM »

 It's been a few weeks now. So I decided to hit the Wack.  Moved around quite a bit from spot to spot, since it was slow in some lower reaches. Tried a spot  mid. river and found a nice sized chromer bury my float, wacked it and out of the water it came  shaking it's head, started to take off and felt like a roll, you guessed it ..#%^*   just spit the hook, tried for a little bit longer to no avail. ....so I moved to another spot I wanted to try and hit it lucky. landed  3  wild  of no huge size , average about  10 lb. slight color and a small dolly varden about  3 lbs. all fish being hit on roe sacs . down to my last roe sac ,firing back in again and after a few drifts a good hard pull ,didn't have enough time to set it , retreived it and all there was  is mesh. Time is getting on and a nice way to end my day , had  FUN !!  beautifull day out, no rain....water vis.  a good 3+  FT.  and dropping from what i could see on the rock water marks.   sure enjoyed my day off .....

That would explain why it has been so much harder to catch steelheads. >:(
