Re: Flaming Geyser area?

I accidently fished up there last week. It's full of fire trucks and they're hitting on jigs and shrimp almost every cast.

Re: Coho Madness!!

Went to Wallace this morning, but about an hour after sunrise. Based on forum reports started with roe. Saw everybody using roe except 2 guys...they were the only 2 I saw catch anything.

Re: Coho Madness!!

Generally speaking the best barometer for fishing is how many fishermen are out, so how many cars are parked at the general public fishing holes as well as all the secret places locals know about is always a good place to start. We tossed the line in the Sky for a bit - we also asked all the fisherm...

Re: Coho Madness!!

I went yesterday to Thomas Eddy - river was way up and the fish were gone. Couldn't fish from the normal spot...had to be up higher on the bank. No bites, just snags. Only saw a couple fish jump on the entire river and everybody seemed be heading out empty-handed. Any thoughts? I may go check out th...
