Looked like a great day once you found them, cant wait for spring to get the boat back out.

Good one Matt,
But I was thinking it's where all the fish are.

I must say I wouldn't have days like that if it was not for several members on this site over many yrs that got me where I'm at today. You know who you are an I'm very grateful to you to have friends like that. Cpmaple

Fishing was good to cpmaple yesterday. Went 10/11 lost the very last fish 15ft from the boat. Looked like a brown an a nice one. All the other fish were salmon.

I’m wondering the same thing myself… fleas should disappear any day now…
