Got to the Jordan road bridge in granite falls at 8:00am and hiked downstream quite a distance until I found a nice hole. Drifted bobber and worm. First cast bobber down with a hard thump, set the hook... Nothing... Cast same spot nothing.. Move up the hole 5ft cast again bobber down. Set the hook.. FISH ON!! this,fish had,some weight on it though, I thought I had a steelhead on at first. Initially my drag was too tight and on my Ul 4# telescopic set up, that fish would've snapped my line. I lower my drag and fight the fish out, it took a minute or two, to my surprise lay a 19" dolly varden. It swam off strong and fast. My pb dolly varden so far. I cast again, same spot, bobber down. Again a fish on, again a dolly varden, but this, time only 16", I removed the hook while it swam off. After that I changed holes, I didn't feel comfortable catching that many Dollies, my target is cutts after all... Next hole same set up, cast, drift, bobber down, this time I finally got my cutt.. 12 1/2" too small :/ next 3 cutts 8".. then at 10:30 the sun came out above the trees and the bite was gone. Like a light switch being flipped. I left at 11:00.
