9-13-12

Today I guided Destry and Dave for salmon. We hit the water at first light and started working our way up river. At each and every stop the water looked good but I just couldn't find any fish. We kept working our way up stream and finally Destry hooked up and landed a 30 pounder. We worked that hole for awhile longer and had another bite but it did not stick. We then began working our way back down stream and Dave hooked up, but before we could get our lures in and the boat turned the fish spooled him! That was a first for me. We never did get to see the fish but it bit hard and ran even harder, Dave guessed it must have been 100 pounds! We continued working our way down stream and had a few more bites but we could not make them stick. It was around noon and Destry wasn't feeling well so we called it a day. It seemed as if we did not have bad luck we would have had no luck at all! I guess that is why they call it fishing, not catching. Either way it was a good day on the water.
