Barrier Dam today, float and eggs. We also got 2 boots down at Blue Creek, but nothing else. Fishing was slow slow slow down there today, not much doing. We were the only people at Barrier when I hooked this buck.

RE:Winter Steel
Wanna know what dollies like even more than spinners, spoons, eggs, shrimp, worms and hardware combined????? Bobbers. Me and Fishenfreak had 3 dollies come up and hit our bobbers in the cascade, they wouldn't touch anything else....they were big too.....somewhat disappointing.
RE:Winter Steel

If it looks fishy, Then fish it, If it dont look fishy, fish it anyways. <')}}}}><

I see a move to Canada or Alaska in the future. The heck with Washington's inabilities to manage their fisheries.Matt wrote:I know right?

my grandfather was using chicken liver for bait (catfish)
and he actuallly hooked into an (approxtimate) 3 1/2 foot alligator.
We thought he just had a really big catfish on, until it got closer. Then we cut
the line.

RE:Winter Steel
Hahaha! That's awesome. Alligators taste delicious! But you have to pull a permit to be able to keep 'em, so you'd have to throw it back. I caught a turtle once, but that's not the same.Fish_Bait111397 wrote:A long time ago I lived in Missouri,natetreat wrote:I'm gonna move to florida and catch alligators.

We will fish for catfish in the summer here, and we catch LOTS of snapping turtles !
I'll post some pics pretty soon and post 'em up here !
