Hit up the Snoho this morning in the high water. Pushing about 10,500 this morning whn I left the house so it was pretty high and muddy, up in the bushes most places. Trolled plugs all day with good success. We hit out first fish instantly in the morning, but due to getting over excited my fishing buddy horsed on it and broke off a real nice chrome hen (and consiquently one of my favorite fatfish plugs). Trolled a while longer before switching up to a K13 Kwiki in Green. About 5 minutes of trolling that and got bit by a real nice little cutthroat. I was going to let it go, but my buddies insisted on keepin' it. Got another hit about 10 minutes later on the same plug but it didn't hook up. Later on my buddy hooked into a real nice 13 lb buck casting and retrieving a Pink brads wiggler. Good fight and a nice fish. Trolled about an hour longer and got a huge takedown from a scrappy little 6lb Hen chromer, put up a good fight and was my friends "first salmon ever". Got her to the boat, trolled a while longer, and called it a day. Overall I had a ton of fun, took out 2 of my good friends, got one of them their first ever salmon (and the "biggest fish they'd ever caught), and enjoyed a nice sunny day. Sent the fillets home with my partners, but stole the eggs from the hen.
Planning to head back out soon.
