Back at it !, and why not

[Longshank]

So after a few days break at the cottage it was time to get back out there for those silver fish.

Wasn't the best day with weather.had it all, fog, rain, torrents and close t-storms, but this was a long timed planned outing with 50 people plus

I got a super crew that hung in there and they were rewarded

We hit the dock at noon as per arrangements, the sun came out and winds picked up strong and we all had a great feast of some salmon and a lot of great bbq steaks with the works


It was a good day with multiple sizes and only 2 colors of spoons firing for me on two rods


It's an annual outing and this was year 5 or 6 I can't remember, but looking forward to the same next year

Well done once again under less than ideal circumstances. I know how much you look forward to this outing, glad it went well for you. And why not indeed, Shank the fishing machine.

[Chevy]

Wow! You were on point

[stevepod]

Nice to see everyone had fun. Nice catch gents This fish was caught the evening before with Werner’s pre fish for the big day.

[Longshank]

Thanks folks and it was fun


Steve, we fund some water holding fish as well as flies , but that made me feel very comfortable on heading back there the next morning and they were still there

I rescheduled today with a board member due to lack of wind which normally be awesome conditions to fish in, but I know it will also be epic for those flies yet again and I believe that you just cannot have fun in that anymore this year. they have to finish up soon I hope


Anyhow right now you can get fish deep like 80-120 down or shallow as always
30-55 feet. Surface temps are up to 57 in certain spots and current is out there for sure. there is also some nasty debris still out there so be carefull

I see guys ripping it at full throttle totally unaware of the size of stuff just below water line


Natural colored baits have been doing the job, but a funky color is always a good idea also
