I love bobber fishing the Skok and having people start asking me for eggs when I limit in 30mins..... Mind you these people were just making fun of me for fishing this way. Give a man a fish vs. Teach a man to fish. It's astounding really.

once while fishing cook creek, some inbred yokal snagged a dark wild king then starts to punch it. I walk behind him and he asks if i'm a game warden. i said maybe so he let it slip back in the water then leaves. had another group of guys snagging up by my property on the upper east fork, went up to the hatchery where they made a call to the wardens and all got tickets.

those chehalis tribs have some of the worst poachers along with the hood canal rivers, if only they had volunteer game warden jobs...

When silver bite was tough in September actually had a local on the stilly tell "silvers won't bite in the river you have to snag em" as I hook a silver on a 14 corkie and black yarn then he says I flossed it even after I showed him the hook inside his mouth he didn't stop trying to snag. Final score me: one Chrome coho hen , snagger:Nada
