Erik has been out a couple of times but hasn't caught anything yet. He also said he hadn't seen anyone else catch anything either. He just picked up a fly rod yesterday and wants some lessons now. Maybe I'll take them with him.

I'm no expert but isn't it a little early for the pink run to start?

Come on Shawn, we dont like pinks!!!! Karakai and I were out yesterday and I was out of Peddder on Saterday. I fed 5 packs of anchovies to those little slimmy bastered and only caught 1-25lb, and 1-18lb, spring. Those things are a slimmy waste of my Bate!!!!!!!!And expensive too..

Was talking to a guy today who said he had been out since 12:30 (was 5:30 at the time) and he had only caught 2 pinks, and they were heading straight up the river.

Going out Wednesday, not leaving without a fish, might bring my fly rod too.
