Hit the Skook about 6:30 in the morning hopin' for some steelie action. Saw a few jumpers. Had a decent hit early but lost it when I didn't set the hook soon enough. Caught a little one only about 11 inches. Threw it back (couldn't keep it anyways). Threw everything I had at 'em. Spoons, spinners, drift jigs, float jigs, worms, sandshrimp, eggs, plastics, hybrids, etc. Worked it till about 3:00 and called it a day. Didn' get skunked this time. Maybe next time I'll find a nice one... Maybe...

Yep, kitchen sink fishing is what I have been doing lately too. At least you got out and fished a new system.
