Rodney, congrats nice fish! I always fish downstream from lickman rd, but the 20 minute walks get annoying :P but it's really intresting if you wak the water path you can actually see fish in the shades rolling when your crossing a river, theres a place right by this log, but it's hard to fish when your standing in the middle of a river :P but I find that deeper works better.. when I set my float to about 2 feet or  1 and a half i get half the fish then 3 - 3 and a half.. I haven't gotten any big springs yet, im really wanting the coho tho :P oh well... one day...

why do you guys have to badger the guy , he is happy about his biggest fish he caught, and you guys come on here bad mouth him about it, not everyone flosses there, so why dont you guys shut up about the negative stuff, by the way Bruce nice fish

Well said FishFreak. Too bad some people like to get their jollies from criticizing others.

Testy Testy fish freak, I think it was only the one guy that was serious!!!!! But he did catch the biggest fish of his life, and it would be a hell of a fight for the guy.  So Bruce, hell of a fish buddy, great job.  As for you bone cross, I don't really like what goes on down at the bridge either.  But after a few words that fishfreak and I had, I went down there to see it for myself.  While there were allot of flossers there, not everyone was flossing.  Mind you if I was going to float fish, there wouldn't be my first choice, but that's just me.  Anyhow cut Bruce some slack.  You weren't there, so don't assume.  Speaking from experience here man.  Don't assume, you look like an my friend!!!!! ;D ;D

How much weight are you using to get the wool down to "Floss" this fish Bruce? Nice fish rod and trout slayer! ;D Love the Keith Wilson Bridge Hero Shots ::)
Here we go again........nice cheap shots guys  >:(  Not all people there are using this method.  Why the sarcasm?  The sad thing is this guy doesn't even realize that he's being ridiculed.  Would you say flyfishermen are also flossing?  Was there a couple days ago and saw quite a few fouled hook fish from flyfishing.  Also, are all the float fishing done "flossing" ?  We could go on & on with this topic, but don't think it'll get us anywhere.  My point is.......when KWB is mentioned.........automatically you think BB, "flossing", "snagging".  I agree this is not a way to fish and has to stop, but don't agree about putting others down when they're just proud of posting a nice fish they caught.  No wonder why others here don't like to post fishing reports......maybe afraid of being bashed.  Nice fish Bruce, Rodney, & TroutSlayer!

I don't know, it happens, when a huge wave of fish come, it is easy even to snag a fish with a float, when your reeling in, its very easy, bottom bounce, floss, call it what you want, we all snag fish, we dont mean to, I personally find bottom bouncing a much more intresting way of fishing, because you feel those rocks/or sand and you wonder, is it a fish, or just a rock? haha :D
