Took a weekend and headed up north to the Cascade hoping we would find the early run of steelhead. There hadn't been any reports so it was kind of a toss up. A buddy and I showed up to the hatchery ...

A great day out in the islands, likely going to cap off the year for the boat. We headed out around 9am, nice and lazy, and were at the spot around 10:30. The tide change strangely brought no bite, ...

Fished last weekend in the San Juans. Focused our efforts on kings Saturday, inside, and only landed a "prince" about 4-5 pounds. I let it go. Other than that, couldn't keep the dogfish off my gear...

Spent the morning at the Sky and picked up another smaller but scrappy king, around 8-10 pounds I'm guessing, and much brighter when it first came out of the water. Had another great take down that d...

Forgot to post this one up... I wanted to post this as someone might have some more insight. Are these wild rainbows popular as far as catching goes? This definitely was not one of the triploids fro...
