HAha, yea it was a nice little suprise coho fishin', but i heard theyre getting um daily up there. I might be hitting the Grande Ronde next weekend, its low and clear but chromers are showing in good numbers last few weeks. Maybe ill get a few good days over there.

Caught another chromer in the cascade yesterday, bout 7 pounds, faught really hard and swallowed my eggs pretty bad. She tasted great!

i went up to reiter on sunday for about 2 hrs, i got skunked, there were 3 fish on the shore and they were tiny.... barely the minimum length requirement

[RiverChromeGS]

Hmmm. Well at least something was being caught. Its still early, theres more to come

[RiverChromeGS]

Soooo... ive done good steelheading the last few days. Caught 2 yesterday and 3 today, and my buddy caught 2 today also. Heres some pictures of our recent steelhead SLAYing. bobber n eggs

A group of us scouted a new river. Water was super high. We found a section that looked fishy. BOBBERDOWN! We went 9/14 as a group and I went 5/8. I released 3 downriver fish and 1 that pushed 14 pounds. Great day fishing with some good friends. We were home just in time when the Turkey was being pulled out of the oven.

wow, nice fish guys. I gotta work less...

Maybe Monday I'll have a chance to get out, weather permitting. Darn fronts have been hitting on my days off, very frustrating!

[curado9889]

What methods are all you guys using to slay them????

[RiverChromeGS]

U kno me... i dont go steelheading ANYWHERE without my eggs. Uncured, just borax on coho eggs under float with a bit of pink or red yarn. Fished a hole today right after 3 guys left it, and they were using single eggs and jigs and caught one. I took one cast as they were leaving, hooked a 10 pounder. They turn around and are like what the hell??? they leave and i proceed to catch 6 more. Gotta have the roe. Lol Heres todays pictures, went 2/4 today, water got lower made fishing tougher but still good day!
