How's the smoke out that way?Size 16 Culton Drowned Ant dropped 20" behind a weighted size 14 hares ear, under a float, got me two solid 18" rainbows in the Spokane River in Spokane Valley this morning. Barbless hooks+no net+3wt = no pictures. Sure was a nice break during a work trip!
No smoke! There's been tons of rain over the last couple days. Thank God.How's the smoke out that way?
Sad to see medial lake burning.....
Love this. I’ll have to try and remember to tie some over the next 22 months!View attachment 80233
This fly caught, let’s just say dozens of O. gorbuscha before the whole hook bend broke off—probably a spot of rust there.
There were still a couple (hundred thousand) fish around last time I looked (yesterday).Love this. I’ll have to try and remember to tie some over the next 22 months!
Nice. My spot in Tacoma has dropped off precipitously, which I’m taking as a sign I should start thinking about coho.There were still a couple (hundred thousand) fish around last time I looked (yesterday).

Our PS rezzies need to pack on more weight fast!I haven’t had to deviate from the standard issue trailing hook clouser. Pretty good fishing out there.

The lower bluegill streamer hasnt pulled one of the 5 or 6 tanks that my local pond supports, but I think it found one of the future pigs! Pic sucks, but this guy as super girthy for his length. Excited for his future.
